On April 4, the 30-year-old appeared before Wyong Local Court where she pleaded guilty to possessing 0.96 grams of crystal methamphetamine, as well as a stack of stolen credit cards, laptops and mail while not displaying P-plates.

The charges came after Wran was pulled over by police at North Wyong service station at 1.30am on February 27.

Yesterday, Magistrate Franklin altered Wran’s bail conditions to “suspend residence & curfew condition while the defendant remains at the REDACTED program”.

Wran’s bail conditions previously stipulated she must live at her mother Jill Wran’s Ravensdale property on the Central Coast while she studied agribusiness at New England University.

Under her night-time curfew, she was not to leave the farm between 8pm and 6am unless accompanied by her mother.

Wran spent two years in jail after pleading guilty to robbery and being an accessory to the murder of drug dealer Daniel McNulty at a Redfern housing commission unit in 2014.

Her then-boyfriend of just two weeks Michael Lee stabbed McNulty to death during the botched robbery and was jailed for a minimum of 13 years.

The former Sydney Church of ­England Grammar School student was originally charged with murder but it was downgraded and Wran was released from Silverwater Jail in September 2016.

Her parole expired last ­August.

Wran had dabbled in drugs at Sydney University where she got a diploma in journalism and has struggled with mental health issues since high school.

But her father’s death in 2014 sent Wran into a downward spiral, her 2016 sentencing hearing was told.

Wran’s matter will return to Wyong Local Court on May 15.
