Leah Remini and Angelo Pagan's Sunday tradition
Leah Remini and Angelo Pagán are showcasing their enduring friendship despite their divorce. The couple, who announced their separation in August, continues to enjoy their beloved Sunday tradition.
In a recent Instagram video, Pagán is seen animatedly engaging with the TV during a Dallas Cowboys game, while Remini playfully questions his intense fandom. Pagán humorously responds, "I’m talking to the television," adding, "They can hear me."
This light-hearted exchange highlights their continued camaraderie, as Pagán captioned the post, "Somethings never change. Still spending most Sundays watching my Cowboys with @leahremini #exesbelike."
On August 29, Remini and Pagán announced their decision to divorce after nearly three decades together. Their statement emphasized a commitment to their daughter, Sofia, and maintaining their friendship. "Well, here we are. After 28 years together and 21 years of marriage, we have decided to file for divorce," they shared.
The statement continued, "We are proud of how we have worked through this together." While they figure out their "new normal," they said they will still continue "celebrating holidays together, watching our favorite tv shows together, and gathering as a family."
"So, the big question—why? To put it simply, we both changed, as people do, and we got used to playing roles that didn’t fit us anymore. After a lot of effort and consideration, we’ve decided to take this step, which reflects who we are today," they wrote.
Remini and Pagán's announcement sheds light on the natural evolution of relationships. They explained, "We both changed, as people do, and we got used to playing roles that didn’t fit us anymore." Their bond, while different now, remains strong.
Leah wants to focus on her career now more than ever.
Best known for her role as "Carrie Heffernan" on the hit sitcom 'The King of Queens' (1998–2007), Remini’s career began in the late 1980s with small television and film roles, but it was that show that catapulted her to mainstream fame. After the show, she transitioned to various other TV projects, including hosting 'The Talk' and starring in her own reality show, 'Leah Remini: It's All Relative'.
In recent years, Remini has become a prominent advocate for ex-members of the Church of Scientology, having famously left the organization herself in 2013.
She documented her journey in the critically acclaimed A&E docuseries 'Leah Remini: Scientology and the Aftermath', which won multiple Emmy Awards and brought her increased attention as a vocal critic of the church. Remini’s career now spans acting, activism, and authoring a best-selling memoir, 'Troublemaker: Surviving Hollywood and Scientology'.
Leah and Angelo had been in a long-lasting, committed relationship since the early 2000s. The two met in the late 1990s and began dating shortly after. Pagan, a Puerto Rican actor, producer, and comedian, was known for his work in film and television, but his career remained more low-profile compared to Remini’s.
The couple’s relationship was a subject of public interest due to Remini's growing fame and their shared background in the entertainment industry. Remini and Pagan married in 2003 and have one daughter together, Sofia, born in 2004. Their marriage has been a strong and supportive one, with Remini often speaking about how Pagan has been a stabilizing and loving influence in her life.
The couple faced challenges during Remini’s exit from Scientology, as the church disapproved of their relationship, given that Pagan was not a member.
However, Remini has credited Pagan with being a constant source of support, particularly during the tumultuous period when she publicly denounced Scientology. Their relationship remained a central part of Remini’s personal life, and the couple continues to share a close bond, often seen together in public and on social media.
