If she expressed strong dissatisfaction with the one pic you showed
her, I'd be hesitant to show any of the others without first gaining
permission. Otherwise it might seem disrespectful. Sharing
potentially-disliked photos around mutual friends or family members
is one thing but showing them to the public at large is another
matter and is likely to provoke a much stronger response.
I'm pretty clueless about legal matters, especially as they apply to
other countries, but I doubt that the law would be black & white in
this situation. It could be argued that her instruction regarding
the one pic she saw was implicitly applicable to the others. That in
itself would be dependent on the degree of similarity of the photos
in question, although she'd have had no idea of this as she'd only
seen the one photo. And if showing the pic on the internet is
interpreted as publication then you may need a signed model release
anyway.
