PERU Two drugs mule Michaella McCollum has continued her sun-soaked trip to swanky Marbella after pictures emerged of her at a job centre.
The ex-jailbird arrived in Marbella, on the sunny Costa del Sol, last week and has wasted no time in continuing her partying after a string of holidays on nearby party isle Ibiza.
The 24-year-old – rumoured to be in talks to be in the next series of Big Brother – spent three years in prison in Peru along with her pal Melissa Reid, also 24.
The pair – dubbed the Peru Two – were caught trying to smuggle 11kg of cocaine worth £1.5million from Peru to gangs in Spain.
And despite being pictured entering the job centre in her home town of Dungannon, Northern Ireland last month Michaella was keen to show off her designer handbag to photographers.

Michaella was spotted holding the YSL bag while wearing a little black dress during a night out with a pal in Puerto Banus.
The resort, famed for its expensive yachts and boutique shops, is popular with celebrities – particularly TOWIE stars.
Michaella and her pal were seen walking between bars in the exclusive resort before she was pictured knocking back a glass of white wine.
It is just the latest in a string of holidays and nights out since her release from prison a year ago.
Michaella had claimed she had been forced into carrying the drugs by an armed gang and only agreed because their lives were threatened.
But their story soon began to unravel and Melissa later confessed: “I made a conscious decision to do it and no one forced me.”
McCollum, of Northern Ireland, told The Mirror: “What I went through was completely my fault – and I lost three years of my life.
“No one put a gun to my head.”
She has said she was on a four-day ketamine and magic mushroom-fuelled bender in Ibiza when she decided to smuggle cocaine into Spain.
The Sun Online reported how her brother, Ryan McCollum, 29, was handed a three-year road ban after he admitted drink-driving.
He was fined £500 and banned by Dungannon magistrates in County Tyrone, Northern Ireland.
