true love or just plain foolish?

Top-Bottom: Clare Venema + Cassi Van Den Dungen

Australia's Next Top Model runner up, 17-year-old Cassi Van Den Dungen rejected a modelling contract offer from NY's Elite Model Management, as well as turfing her Sydney agent Priscilla Leighton-Clarke. She has chosen to return home to Sunbury, Victoria and be with her bf.

1. This was her real great chance to get her foot in the door, and she's chosen to be with her man. Is this a romantic move? Or is it just a foolish one?

2. She's had all this encouragement from the judges on the show and yet has nothing really to show for it, other than that she likes to bail.

3. If she's not going to take up any modelling contracts, why'd she enter the competition anyway? She effectively for me, stole the position from Claire (2nd runner up).

4. Do we just boil this down to young mind, young love and young heart? After all, she's only 17.
