Colleagues were also concerned about how she interacted with clients on last month’s flight and in other recent situations.

Leah was at the center of the controversy surrounding the incident on the BA flight which led to singer Ryan, 41, being convicted last year.

But sources say she is now the focus of an investigation after she became “frustrated” with passengers when they pressed the help button above their seats.

One pilot was said to be among BA staff concerned about Leah’s alleged “poor performance”.

Asked about Leah’s suspension, BA said: “It would not be appropriate to comment while we continue to investigate the matter.”
