Llywelyn entered a long-term relationship, with someone other than Lee, in 2003 and the couple became parents of twins in 2004. As of 2015, the family lived together in Atlanta.[8]
Relationship with the Church of Scientology
Llywelyn was introduced to the Church of Scientology by her then-husband Jason Lee, who was then a member of the organization.[1] According to Llywelyn, her resistance to becoming more involved with Scientology was a cause of problems in their relationship.[15]
According to her account, after she revealed to her Scientologist talent manager Gay Ribisi (mother of actor Giovanni Ribisi) that she had read A Piece of Blue Sky, a book critical of the Church, she was labeled a suppressive person and shunned (or "disconnected") by her friends within the church. Her husband sent a "disconnection letter" as a sign of contempt two days after said conversation; he would ironically drop out of his involvement of Scientology 15 years later.[16][17] Llywelyn's manager, a member of the Church, also "disconnected" and allegedly convinced United Talent Agency to drop Llywelyn as a client.[18]
Since her departure, Llywelyn has been an outspoken critic of the Church of Scientology. She has expressed distaste for the classist undertones of Scientology.[8]
She has stated the organization has harassed her, pursuant to the fair game policy.[1] Llywelyn reports being subjected to a campaign of surveillance and harassment. Writes Llywelyn: "Scientology has a sophisticated intelligence agency known as the Office of Special Affairs, which is essentially a complex system dedicated to ruining the lives of those it sees as enemies in any way possible. Those who work for the OSA do not follow the law."[18]
