Since her divorce from ex-husband James Stunt in 2017, Petra has gone on to find love with Sam Palmer.
And Petra revealed that the romantic thing she has ever done for her new boyfriend is to commission a word by the street artist Mr Brainwash as a Christmas present.
The mother-of-three relocated to LA earlier this year and moved into a 57,000ft Bel Air mansion, which is believed to have cost £148 million.
To which Petra admitted that it has been her most extravagant purchase, she said: ‘My house in LA. It’s really cool, but I want to sell it and move somewhere smaller.’

She added: ‘I have a house with 14 bedrooms, a bowling alley and a hair and nail salon. I also have a home in Chelsea and come to London about every three months.
‘We have seven dogs, including a St Bernard called Beethoven who’s as big as a horse. I’m allergic to cats.’
Petra previously spoke about how she relocated her family to Los Angeles as she no longer felt safe at her luxury London home.

The family will also be joined by her mother Slavica Ecclestone, sister – Tamara and her niece Sophia.
Talking about her Christmas plans, she said: ‘We always have traditional roast turkey.
‘My contribution is the stuffing – and that comes out of a packet! I will be in LA with my mum, my sister and our children.’
Petra has been dating her beau Sam since late last year, as she and ex-husband James finally reached a divorce settlement in October 2017 after six years of marriage.

The divorce proceedings were not short of controversy and Mr Stunt was even accused of making a ‘gun gesture’ to Petra’s father Bernie Ecclestone at one point.
While no details of the settlement were released, it was reported that James signed a £16 million prenuptial agreement, with Petra also awarded sole custody of the couple’s three children in January.
James and Petra tied the knot in at lavish £12 million wedding at a castle in Rome, Italy, in 2011.
The couple enjoyed an extraordinary life together, splashing out £100million on a Chelsea mansion and £158 million on a 123-room home in Los Angeles, and went on to have three children.
But since late last year and their divorce, Petra has been photographed with her new man, Sam, a vintage car dealer who is friends with her sister Tamara’s husband, Jay Rutland.
