Cole recently put her fashion career on hold to study at Cambridge University and took roles in a string of films including The Imaginarium Of Dr Parnassus with the late Heath Ledger.

The 21-year-old is now adamant her days as a full-time model are at an end, because her future lies in Hollywood, reported aceshowbiz.com.

“I’d like to act and not really model so much. I wouldn’t want to treat acting as a convenient thing to do now and again. I’ve been modelling for years and I feel like I’ve taken out of it what I need to and I’m ready for new things. I’ve really enjoyed the process of acting and I’d be more inclined to dedicate my time to that,” said Cole.
