Paris Hilton is “living like a nun” in a bid to avoid prison .

The hotel heiress – who was has been sentenced to 45 days in jail for driving with a suspended licence – has been told by her lawyers to clean up her act in an attempt to evade jail.

Paris, 26, has told friends she is quitting alcohol and partying and has replaced her skimpy outfits with a new demure look.

She also made a public show of playing the loyal daughter by visiting her father Rick in hospital with a huge get well soon card.

A friend of the socialite’s told Britain’s The Sun newspaper: “Paris’ attorneys have insisted she live like a nun. She has been strictly advised to stop acting like a Hollywood brat and appear more humble as they battle to keep her out of jail.

“They have ordered her to show a judge she has some humility and social responsibility if she is going to have her sentence reduced on appeal. That means no booze, no parading round in skimpy outfits, no partying. She’s got to stick with her family and take on a healthier regime.”

Paris is due to begin her sentence at California’s female-only Century Regional Detention Centre in Lynwood on June 5.

Just in case her appeal is not successful, the socialite is said to be learning self-defence so she can protect herself against inmates who have threatened to target her.
