Leah Remini's family has marked a new spiritual milestone, two years after leaving the Church of Scientology.

The actress, 45, shared photographs of her daughter's Catholic baptism to Instagram on Friday, calling it a 'new beginning.'

The It's All Relative star sits beside husband Angelo Pagan, and placed a loving arm around her ten-year-old daughter Sofia, who leans in close for the touching snap.

'A very special day for our little girl and her Godparents,' Leah wrote, tagging her makeup artist Corina Rabichuk.

'Wanted to share with all of you,' Leah wrote, adding hashtags '#baptism #catholic' and '#newbeginngings.'

They family smile as they sit on a church pew, with Leah's mother Vicki Marshall and stepfather George Marshall smiling as they sit in a pew behind them.

The former King of Queens star looked gorgeous in a stylish blue-and-white patterned dress, while Sofia looked pretty in a white baptismal gown.

She also shared a picture of Sofia being baptized by the priest as her proud parents placed a protective hand on her shoulder, writing 'one more' and adding an emoticon smiley face.

Her actor husband Angelo also shared the photo of Sofia's baptism, calling the day 'a beautiful experience.'

'For the record @leahremini and I have always been Catholic!,' he wrote on Instagram.

'Why we waited so long to baptize Sofia! Hmm...' he wrote, hinting of their past Scientology connection.

'Anyway it was a beautiful experience and our little angel is on her way to a more spiritual existence. God Bless!'

Family first: Remini has previously said she left Scientology to set a good example for her daughter

Leah was baptized as a Catholic as a baby, but then joined Scientology as a child when her mother joined the church.

Responding to a fan on Twitter, Leah said the family had 'gone home' by returning to the Catholic church.

And she said the baptism 'happened at the right time' for her daughter.

'Our daughter was aware of what she was accepting and it was beautiful to witness,' Remini said on Twitter.

The actress famously left Scientology in 2013, after being raised in the secretive cult.

She says she was subject to years of abusive interrogation after angering Scientology leader David Miscavage by asking about his rarely-seen wife Shelly while at Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes' wedding in 2006.

Leah bravely left Scientology - which has been labeled a dangerous cult by critics - and later explained that her daughter was the reason she finally decided to leave the church.

Sofia was reaching the age where she was to begin 'auditing', the process of being questioned and analysed by the church, she told Us Weekly last year.

'She was getting to the age where the acclimation into the Church would have to start,' Leah said.

'I started thinking of my own childhood and how I grew up resenting my mother because she was never home.'

Leah realized she was at risk of following in her mother's footsteps of putting the Church before her own family, and felt she wasn't setting a good example for Sofia.

'In my house, it's family first - but I was spending most of my time at the Church,' she explained.

'So, I was saying 'family first,' but I wasn't showing that. I didn't like the message that sent my daughter.'

Leah, Angelo and Sofia star on TLC reality show It's All Relative, which has been renewed for a second season.
