She fled her home country with her mother in 2009 to escape her criminal ex-boyfriend, Miloš[2] after her mother was attacked by him and came to the U.S. where she met and got engaged to Lachlan Moore.[3] She left her fiancé for Rafael Solano, who she fell in love with and is now divorced from, following an affair with his former friend.[4]

Petra is cunning, bright and resourceful, but most of her choices are informed by her feelings of guilt and indebtedness to her mother, who keeps secrets from Petra[2][5] and berates her.[6] These choices have led Petra to be involved in her mother's criminal activities. In reality, Petra was a sweet and somewhat innocent woman when she was young and now wants better for herself in life.[7] In 2020, Petra is the successful co-owner behind the rebranding of The Marbella and mother of two angelic 4-year-old twin daughters.[1]

The "trophy wife" sculpture on display

Petra is confronted with her past when an artist, who was having her wedding at The Marbella, whom Rafael also knew, pulls her business, which the hotel sorely needs. Initially thinking this is because of the defamatory 'Curse Of The Solanos' article, they are both surprised to discover that Petra had an encounter with the artist years back, when she was married to Rafael. This prompts Petra to do anything to secure the wedding will take place at the Marbella, to prove to the world that she is not a trophy wife, as the artist thinks and also has chosen to depict in her artwork. Rafael says he doesn't see her that way, but Petra reminds him how they met, revealing that that Petra and Magda plotted for Petra to become engaged to Lachlan, and Petra's leaving Lachlan for Rafael was only 'catching a bigger fish' in monetary terms, although she did eventually fall in love with him. Petra agrees to let the artist display her "Petra the Trophy Wife" work at The Marbella and gives the artist a free wedding at the hotel, feeling that she can do this because she's no longer the scheming "man-eater" she used to act like. This experience brings her and Rafael closer and he kisses Petra, who stops it asking him if he's truly over Jane.[10] Moving on, Petra reiterates to him that she's not a second choice and refuses to start anything just because he clearly feels rejected by Jane.[26]

Jane, feeling concerned, gives Petra the number of a doctor from one of the other moms, who dealt with postpartum and Petra talks to the psychologist. The doctor's need for family medical history leads Petra to an uncomfortable conversation with her own incarcerated mother, who dumps on Petra's abilities as a mother, which Petra, unfortunately, takes to heart.[30] A surprise defers Petra's woes momentarily when her long-lost twin sister Anežka shows up at The Marbella.[31] Petra is stunned to learn that she has a sister and tries to find a place for the nervous Anežka in her life. Though they are very different, Petra is happy to have family in her life that she might have a real relationship with and is touched by Anezka's unwavering support of her.[32] In a hurtful turn, Anežka reveals that she is scheming with Magda to sell Petra's share of the hotel and leave for a better life by poisoning Petra and putting her in a state of physical paralysis.[33]

Petra is also heartbroken that her girls, from whom she has been separated for so long, do not seem to recognize her. Although she wants to do anything she can to be their mother again, Petra is worried that they might never come around. Once Rafael reveals having hidden his father's stolen art to Petra, she tries to make the problem go away so Rafael doesn't have to serve prison time.
