DAILY MAIL: His distress, say sources close to him, has been compounded by the first cracks in his 34-year relationship with the Church of Scientology, the cult-like religion of which Travolta is a prominent and generous benefactor. And there are dark mutterings that if he carries out private threats to leave, the organisation will go public with embarrassing details of his private life, including, it is claimed, allegations of past homosexual relationships. […] But there is much more to this than just a questioning of a once rock-solid faith. “I think it would be very difficult for John Travolta at this stage, given his history with the religion, to extricate himself from the Church of Scientology,’ said Mr Ross, who has investigated the sect for almost 30 years. “It would be a huge move on his part because Scientology keeps files on its celebrity members containing embarrassing personal information about them. And Scientology has proven in the past that it has a penchant for releasing that information to embarrass people who have left and who have said things it doesn’t like. If celebrities leave, they tend to do it quietly and keep their mouths shut, because if they do speak out, they are opening themselves up to attack from Scientology. That’s why I think Travolta will want to keep his problems with the Church private.” MORE
