<p>Sometimes it takes a big life event to shock you into realising what’s truly important, and it seems that’s exactly what happened to Tziporah Malkah, formerly known as Kate Fischer.</p>
<p>The former model and ex-fiancée of James Packer has reunited with her estranged mother, politician Pru Goward, just days after she was fined $1,500 and had her license suspended for driving erratically.</p>

<p>“I am extremely grateful that I was inadvertently given the chance to see my family in Yass last week,” Tziporah captioned the photo on Facebook. “I told my mother that I could do gaol time for refusing to take the plea I’d been offered days earlier.</p>
<p>“As a result my poor mother stressed out and fainted a day or so later. I will not be going to gaol as per the magistrate’s ruling yesterday. I pray for the health of my mother and family at this time.”</p>
<p>Their reunion comes 10 months after Tziporah, who was a contestant on the most recent series of <em>I’m a Celebrity… Get Me Out of Here</em>, opened up about her fractured relationship with Pru in an interview on <em>The Project</em>.</p>
<p>“It has always been quite a difficult relationship,” she said. “I respect my mother and I understand my mother... that she is not motherly.”</p>
<p>In an interview with <em>Stellar </em>magazine, Pru, who is the New South Wales Minister for Family and Community Services and Minister for Social Housing, made a brief comment on their estrangement: “We’ll see. We have quite a few years to go.”</p>
<p>And it looks like their reunion couldn’t come at a better time, with the <a href="http://www.smh.com.au/victoria/packers-exfiancee-now-lives-on-100-a-week-20171215-h05akz.html" target="_blank"><strong><em><span style="text-decoration: underline;">Sydney Morning Herald</span></em></strong></a> reporting Tziporah “now lives on $100 a week”.</p>
<p>During court proceedings for her driving charge, her lawyer Michael Kuzilny said the 44-year-old was “very financially disadvantaged” after being embroiled in a Los Angeles real estate scam, in which she lost $2 million.</p>
