"Okay naman. I’ve been very busy since I got back. Ngayon busy sa taping. Nanibago ako nung una, pero ngayon medyo ilang buwan na kami nag-te-taping so ano na, back na ako sa regular rhythm," she shared.

Despite her busy taping schedule, she hinted at a desire to pursue more prestige projects, noting that she is simply waiting for the perfect timing to conclude current commitments.

Beyond acting, Padilla discussed the roots of her passion for writing, creditng her mother's love for books as a foundational influence. She explained that her foray into screenwriting was born out of a desire to see more diverse roles in the industry.

"I felt like there was a gap in the industry for what I wanted to watch and maybe because I wasn’t being offered the roles I wanted to play, parang sometimes, 'di ba, invention comes out of necessity," Padilla explained.

She confirmed that she is currently developing new scripts in collaboration with ABS-CBN.

The event also touched upon her personal life, as the actress is currently single following the end of a five-year relationship. When asked for travel advice for other single women, she lightheartedly suggested the beach as a prime destination.

Padilla concluded by sharing her affinity for the sun, noting that she frequents the beach for free diving and enjoys the Salcedo market. Even with her love for a "healthy glow," she remains vigilant about skincare.

"I make sure my skin is healthy so gumagamit pa rin ako ng sunscreen kahit na nagpapaaraw ako lagi," she clarified.
