The X Factor winner only moved into the property last month but a source told the Mirror she’s moved out again for the time being: “Leona had just gone to the shops to pick up some bits and pieces and was followed all the way back home by this man.

“She was completely unsettled by this and was pretty relieved to get back to the house safely. But when she looked out of the window later the man was still there, staring right at her. It freaked Leona out big time. She feared she was being stalked.

“Right from the off, the place didn’t feel right. Every night Leona was on the phone to friends, saying that she was lonely and not enjoying rattling around a huge house by herself.

“Mates came round to sleep over and keep her company but after she saw the bloke staring at her through the window, Leona decided she’d had enough, and jumped on a plane back to the UK.”

While she’s back in her native London, staying with her parents and boyfriend Lou Al-Chamaa, she’s having the security improved made on the house, which she rents for $11,000 a month: “She’s had new electronic gates put in and CCTV installed which links directly to the local police, station.

“Hopefully that’ll put her mind at ease slightly. She’s also asked Simon Cowell if he can find Lou, who now works for him, a placement over in the US.”
