Schapelle Corby is “at it again” posting today another photo on social media purportedly from her hospital bed after undergoing knee surgery.

The convicted drug smuggler put up two photos today for her 200,000 Instagram followers: one showed her dressed in a hospital gown lying in a hospital bed next to her mum Rosleigh Rose; the other just her legs wrapped in white bandages.

Corby claimed she was admitted to hospital in June with a broken leg, just weeks after returning to Australia.

She posted an image to Instagram claiming she had a “broken leg, broken ankle, broken knee”.

It is unclear if the incidents are related as she has not revealed anything further about the alleged injuries or how they occurred.

Corby returned to Australia on May 27 this year, more than 12 years after being convicted for drug smuggling.

She was sentenced to 20 years in prison in 2005 after she was arrested in Bali with 4.1kg of cannabis inside a body-board bag.

She served nine years in prison and three years on parole before being deported back to Australia.
