GHISLAINE Maxwell has been moved to a low-security prison in Florida where inmates can bake and take up yoga.
The disgraced socialite, 60, was last month jailed for 20 years for decades of abuse after grooming dozens of girls for twisted paedophile Jeffrey Epstein.
Maxwell was found guilty of luring young girls to massage rooms for Epstein to molest between 1994 and 2004.
And she has now been moved to low-security prison FCI Tallahassee in Florida according to the Bureau of Prisons.
She will be eligible for release on 17 July 2037.
It comes after Maxwell lodged an appeal against the sex trafficking conviction and 20-year sentence earlier this month.

She had been held at the Metropolitan Detention Center, New York, since her arrest in July 2020.
But her lawyers repeatedly complained that conditions at the Brooklyn jail were "reprehensible" and that Maxwell was subjected to invasive surveillance.
They also alleged that Maxwell was deprived of water and fed food infested with maggots, reports The Guardian.
It was also claimed that raw sewage permeated her cell, which was plagued by rats, and that guards prevented her from sleeping by shining torches into her eyes every 15 minutes.

Her lawyers requested that she serve her sentence at FCI Danbury in Connecticut, a minimum security prison.
Experts have previously described the jail as being “like Disneyland” compared with the Brooklyn institution.
Alison Nathan, who oversaw Maxwell’s trial, had recommended that Maxwell be moved to FCI Danbury following the request, but the Bureau of Prisons ultimately made the decision.
She has since been relocated to FCI Tallahassee, which opened in 1938 and houses women only.
According to a prison consulting firm, inmates can take part in yoga, an inmate talent show and watch movies.
A prospectus for the facility shows detainees can enjoy playing sports like softball, basketball, volleyball, and try hobbies like painting, leatherwork, art and ceramics.
Maxwell has been in prison since July 2020 thanks to her involvement with Epstein, despite numerous attempts to have her released on bail.
During her three-week trial, Maxwell was described as "dangerous", and jurors were told details of how she helped entice vulnerable teenagers to Epstein's various properties for him to sexually abuse.
Despite maintaining her innocence, she was convicted on 29 December of five of the six charges she faced.
