MANILA, Philippines – Thai-British actress and model Paula Taylor listed the Philippines as one of the countries she likes coming back to often.

“I love everything! I love the food and the people,” the Thai-British actress told “Unang Hirit” in a taped interview aired on Feb. 9.

Paula is currently in the country to shoot an ad campaign for a clothing brand. The report did not specify the brand, but Paula endorses Plains & Prints and recently shot for its Rhett Eala Spring/Summer 2012 Santorini Collection. Behind-the-scenes photos of the shoot can be found on the brand’s Facebook fan page.

More, Paula posted on Twitter Thursday morning that she’ll be in Manila "for a week to play with" Isabelle Daza, Georgina Wilson, Anne Curtis and JM Rodriguez.

The Thai-Brit personality also happily related that she’s now a mother to an eight month-old tot named Lyla. According to Paula’s official fansite, she tied the knot with Edward Buttery – said to be "Hong Kong’s future shipping magnate” – on Dec. 6, 2010.

“I don’t want to say that my life has changed, I’m now a mother, which it has, but I feel it’s a special addition to my life,” she said.

A former VJ for Channel [V] Thailand, Paula may be remembered by Pinoys in the 2009 movie, “Love on Line (LOL),” which she co-starred with Vic Sotto. That same year, she was Christian Bautista's leading lady in the music video for his song, "Tell Me Your Name." Paula also had guest co-hosting stints in a number of local shows such as "Eat! Bulaga" and the now-defunct Sunday noontime show, "SOP."

She also used to endorse a few local brands ranging from shoes to food and personal care.

Meanwhile, Paula, whose movies were mostly in the rom-com genre, expressed that she wants dabble more in drama.
