Petra married James Stunt at a castle in Rome. The wedding cost $20 million. In the same year, she purchased the Spelling Mansion in Beverly Hills from Candy Spelling (widow of 90210 creator Aaron Spelling and mother of Tori Spelling). She paid $85 million for the mansion.
Known as “The Manor” Spelling mansion is an epitome of luxury. Built in 1991, it is located in the ultra-exclusive Beverly Hills neighborhood of Holmby Hills. Aaron had bought the property in 1988, demolished; spent three years and $12 million to build the mansion. It has 123 rooms including a gym, movie theater, four 2-car garages, and a bowling alley.
Petra has announced that she wants to sell the mansion for $150 million. A wise real estate investor, if she gets a buyer for the price, she will make a cool $65 million.
