Leah’s family announced that she passed away from Ewing’s Sarcoma, which is an extremely rare cancer affecting soft tissue and bones.
Last month, Leah revealed in an emotional TikTok that she was ‘so so scared’ of stopping treatment after doctors told her that it ‘wasn’t working anymore’.
In an emotional video posted on her page last night, her boyfriend Andrew told followers that Leah had passed away at 11:30 yesterday morning.
He said: ‘I just want to say thank you to everyone. All your comments did help. She did actually read all of them.
‘And anyone who said anything nice ever, it means more than you realise.
‘We’ll all miss Leah and we’ll make sure that we never forget her. I want to see everyone speaking about Leah and how amazing she is and how much she helped everyone. We’ll never let Leah be forgotten.’
The video has amassed over seven million views and prompted thousands of fans to leave loving comments.
Fellow TikTok star Katylee Bailey commented: ‘Leah was such a beautiful person inside and out! She will never be forgotten! Rest in peace.’
TikToker Leuan Jones added: ‘This is so sad, life is so cruel! Rest in peace lovely lady.’
Meanwhile, a third said: ‘Been a silent follower for years. Wow I’m so sorry, rest in paradise beautiful. I hope you’re finally at peace.’
Yesterday, Leah’s mother and best friend Vikki revealed the star had been moved to end-of-life care and was ‘so peaceful’.
They said: ‘[Leah] looks as beautiful as ever and we’re just grateful we can be at her bedside and hold her hand to comfort her through it.’
‘Andrew hasn’t left her side, he’s been an absolute rock to her throughout this journey.’
The mother went on to say how Leah had asked her to keep her followers updated on her condition.
She continued: ‘We will keep you updated as we know that’s what Leah would want, she shared so much of her journey with you and it’s only fair that we continue to do that in her favour.’
Leah’s friend wrote in the comments: ‘I forgot to mention, Leah is surrounded by flowers in her room and pictures of me and Ellie and all of her memories.

‘I wanted to start a TikTok to express my journey and show people my life living with cancer – the ups and downs of it. People absolutely love it.
