She was thrown from the boat when he crashed on the Thames in 2015.
Shepherd was freed in January last year after serving half his sentence.
The Ministry of Justice has now told Charlotte’s dad Graham that Shepherd is back inside for flouting rules.
Asked by The Sun, justice officials refused to confirm the nature of the breach.
Graham, 61, said: “He’s back where he belongs.
“Prison is the best place for this man.
“I’ve always believed that Shepherd is a narcissist.
“He’s never shown remorse for his part in the death of my daughter.
“I think about her every day. The pain is never far away.
“I’ll never forgive him and still believe he poses a risk to females.”
Web developer Shepherd, who lived on a houseboat in Hammersmith, West London, tempted around ten girls into bed before his disaster date.
He wooed Charlotte with a £150 dinner at The Shard then drank more champagne before a late-night ride in his poorly-maintained 14ft boat.
He was charged with manslaughter but in 2018 fled to Georgia, from where he was extradited after being found guilty in his absence.
Before fleeing, Shepherd had smashed a bottle over a Devon barman.
Victim David Beech, an ex-soldier, was not aware Shepherd was back in jail when contacted by The Sun.
He declined to comment.
