She was released from prison in 2013 but recalled just two years later after selling nude pictures of herself online.
Despite a mountain of controversy, the decision was made to free Connelly again in 2022 and she was made subject to 20 licence conditions.
The vile mum is now back behind bars after breaching the terms of that licence.
A HM Prison and Probation Service spokesperson said: "Offenders released on licence are subject to strict conditions and we do not hesitate to recall them to prison if they break the rules."
It is not clear what violation Connelly made to land herself back in jail.
Since her release, Connelly is understood to have been sharing details of her weight loss under a fake name.
She signed up to Weight Watchers as a reality TV fan - detailing her journey after she previously ballooned to 20 stone in jail.
The evil mum posts updates -including gym snaps - in a warped bid to make pals without revealing her vile past.

Connelly's partner, Steven Barker and his brother Jason Owen were also jailed over his death.
In 2022, the mum was freed from HMP Low Newton under the cover of darkness despite a last-minute plea by then-Deputy PM Dominic Raab.
The Sun pictured 20-stone Connelly back on the streets as she popped to Aldi.
She then returned to her bail hostel at a secret location in the North.
The parole bid was her fourth after losing appeals in 2015, 2017 and 2019 — with officials finding she still posed a threat to the public.
She will now have to face the Parole Board again to be considered for re-release.
How Baby P's death horrified the nation
Peter Connelly died in London in 2007 aged just 17 months old after suffering more than 50 injuries.
During an eight-month campaign of cruelty, he was seen 60 times by healthcare professionals and social workers.
Peter's nightmare began when mum Tracey Connelly invited her new boyfriend Steven Barker to move in during November 2006.
Just months later, a GP noticed bruises on his face and chest and the youngster was placed in the care of a family friend.
The brief break from his abusers ended in January 2007 when he returned home and was later admitted to hospital on two occasions.
Connelly was arrested after medics found Peter was suffering from injuries including two black eyes and swelling on the side of the head.
Despite her arrest, Peter's ordeal was worsened when Barker's brother, Jason Owen, moved into the home with a 15-year-old girl.
Social workers visited the house but his evil attackers smeared his face with chocolate to hide his bruises.
On August 3, 2007, Baby P was found dead in his bloodstained cot - just one day after police told Connelly she would not be prosecuted.
A post mortem later revealed he had swallowed a tooth after being punched, was missing fingernails and was suffering from a broken back.
Owen and Barker were convicted causing or allowing the death of a child, which Connelly had earlier pleaded guilty to.
