London, Mar 9 : Brit's youngest WAG Melissa Reeves has been dumped by her footie boyfriend Jack Rodwell, after she was featured on the front page of the Daily Star Sunday.

Reeves, 16, from West Derby, Liverpool, was given the shove by Rodwell, 17, after a picture showing her in a racy outfit at a Formula One models launch was published on the front page of the paper.

Rodwell, who is currently playing for Everton, told Reeves, that her modelling career was giving him unwanted attention, and he even accused her of trying to cash in by becoming another fame-hungry WAG.

"He's finished me for his football. I'm stunned. I'm not bothered about the WAG thing - it's not my fault I was photographed. I love my modelling but I didn't want anything to come between us," the Daily Star quoted her as saying.

"Just when I thought things were going so well he's gone and done this. I'm gutted. I feel like my world has ended," she added.

The two had been dating only for a few months when they were compared to ex-Everton Wayne Rooney, 23, and his wife Coleen, 22.

But mates of Rodwell insist that he doesn't want to be tarred with the same brush.

"Jack's desperate to make it in the top flight and doesn't want anything getting in the way," one of Rodwell's pals said.

"All those pictures and stories of him with Melissa and comparisons to Wayne and Coleen are not what he wanted.

"He found himself on the front of newspapers instead of on the back page - where he should be.

"Mel was attracting unwanted attention with her modelling so he decided to call it a day.

"Football's his priority now," the friend added. (ANI)
