Reality TV contestant and former Penthouse cover girl Suzi Taylor is back in court amid fresh fraud and false impersonation allegations

The Block 2015 contestant, whose real name is Suellen Jan Taylor, is also accused of breaching her bail conditions for other charges on 49 occasions.

She briefly appeared via video-link on Tuesday in Brisbane Magistrates Court, where she was surprised not to be granted bail.

“What? Yes?” Taylor, 49, pleaded when magistrate Suzette Coates rhetorically asked if there was to be no bail application.

“That is fairly academic given the fact bail was refused on the other charges,” Ms Coates said ignoring Taylor.

The fresh charges relate to allegations that Taylor failed to abide by her bail conditions to report to police and reside at a known address between March 26 and June 8.

She is also accused of falsely representing herself as a fictitious person named Sue Ray with intent to defraud and dishonestly gaining benefit on April 24 at an apartment in South Brisbane.

No details about those charges were revealed in court.

Taylor was remanded in custody to reappear on July 1, when she is also facing 10 other bail breaches.

The mother-of-three has previously faced court in October over accusations she kicked and punched a man to steal money after meeting him on dating app Tinder.

It is alleged she attacked the 33-year-old before forcing him to hand over money.

Taylor was charged with extortion with intent to gain benefit, deprivation of liberty, assault occasioning bodily harm and possessing dangerous drugs.
