The only reason Cleo didnt win is bcos she was very young......I think there was a sinister ploy here., I have a feeling she was dumped, nobody knows what was the outcome of the voting results, all we heard was the announcement who who won, no voting results were displayed.

In my mind and I was rooting for her all the way is that she won the contest......

Any one of the finalists could/should have won. They were all fantastic. So proud of them all. Cleo is still very young - she's going to be so so good but not just now. Loved the show.
