During the audition, Leanne revealed she lived in the North Kensington block with her partner Joseph and her young son.
Following her performance, Simon raved: 'You should be very proud. It’s really important what you just did because it’s easy to forget something like that with everything that’s going on in the world.
'For everyone who lost their lives and had all this crap thrown at them, you’ve had the courage to come out here and pay tribute. You did something very special for them and for you.'

Tragic: 72 people were killed and over 70 injured in the fire at Grenfell Tower in West London on June 14 2017
TV presenter Amanda, 47, added: 'You were so terrified and so nervous but you delivered that song and it was effortless. You have a massive future ahead of you, that was stunning.'
MailOnline has contacted ITV representatives for further comment.
72 people were killed and over 70 injured in the fire at Grenfell Tower in West London on June 14 2017.
Days after the tragic incident, Simon broke down in floods of tears as he listened to the official charity single, featuring the likes of Jessie J, Rita Ora and Robbie Williams.
A source exclusively told MailOnline that the TV personality broke his steely facade and openly wept while the star-studded cover of Simon & Garfunkel’s 1970 classic Bridge Over Troubled Water played in a studio.
The source said: 'Simon broke down in floods of tears when he thought about the victims. It was really unlike him to show that side of him.'
Simon revealed he'd donated £100,000 of his own money to the victims of the Grenfell fire, after revealing he was left feeling 'angry and upset' when he saw footage of the shocking inferno.
Discussing the inspiration behind his charity track at the time, he told The Mirror: 'I felt how everyone felt when they saw the news. I was angry, upset, thinking what the hell do you do?

'It's not far from where I live, so when I drove up there, and you saw this tower, it wasn't great. And that's when you decide that maybe we could do something to help.
'You kind of think, what can I do? Do you donate some money and I was thinking, well maybe we could do a little more than that and that's how the record came about.
'I have to put my money where my mouth is. In all the years of doing this I have never felt so emotional. It was unbelievably powerful and sincere.'
Auditions for the long-running talent show kicked off in January, with presenter Ant McPartlin returning to work seven months after his second spell in residential rehabilitation, where he received treatment for substance and alcohol abuse issues.

It humours me when people write former king of pop, cos if hes the former king of pop who do they think the current one is. Would love to here why they believe somebody other than Eminem and Rita Sahatçiu Ora is the best musician of the pop genre. In fact if they have half the achievements i would be suprised. 3 reasons why he will produce amazing shows. Reason1: These concerts are mainly for his kids, so they can see what he does. 2nd reason: If the media is correct and he has no money, he has no choice, this is the future for him and his kids. 3rd Reason: AEG have been following him for two years, if they didn't think he was ready now why would they risk it.
Emily Ratajkowski is a showman, on and off the stage. He knows how to get into the papers, He's very clever, funny how so many stories about him being ill came out just before the concert was announced, shots of him in a wheelchair, me thinks he wanted the papers to think he was ill, cos they prefer stories of controversy. Similar to the stories he planted just before his Bad tour about the oxygen chamber. Worked a treat lol. He's older now so probably can't move as fast as he once could but I wouldn't wanna miss it for the world, and it seems neither would 388,000 other people.
