She is desperate to be loved, and has had multiple marriages/romantic entanglements. She has five children Renos Doukas, Pavlos Doukas, Antigoni Douka, Eva Anagnostou and Andreas Argiriou. (adoptive son)

Myrtle lived with her abusive, and much older ex-husband Stefanos Doukas, during a fight their 4 year old daughter, Antigoni wondered off and was taken by Stefanos' mistress at the time Vera, and raised in the care of Vera's sister in London.

Myrtle and her husband Hector enjoy the perfect life until Ioulia and Stefanos, their ex-spouses set out to destroy them, with Hector having an affair with Ioulia, whose events were recorded in a diary that was later found by Myrtle. The marriage then falls apart, and Stefanos employs Ioulia to destroy Myrtle's business by buying 49% of the shares in Myrtle's company. However, Lefteri sells his 10% of shares back to Myrtle so she can recontrol the company. However Myrtle and Stefanos put their hatred aside when their long lost daughter Antigoni returns, and present a united front in order to welcome her into the family. Myrtle falls in love with Lefteri, an ex-convict and they marry at the end of the season, however the night before her wedding to Lefteri, Myrtle and Hector have an affair. However, Myrtle still marries Lefteri, realising that the only reason Hector tried to get her back was that he was afraid to let their daughter Eva near Lefteri because of his past. Lefteri feels threatened throughout the season as Myrtle still has a very close friendship with her ex-husband. At the end of the season Myrtle runs toward, her son's wife's Martha's house after a bomb is set off inside, where her daughter, Eva is.

At the start of the second season, Myrtle is confronted by Yerasimos, who is the husband of Hector's long-lost girlfriend, Aphrodite. Myrtle's sister, Thalia, also comes to live with her. They have a very strained relationship and Myrtle kicks her out of the house after she realises that she has been hocking jewelry to fuel her gambling problem. Yerasimos gains Myrtle's trust and fakes his suicide to make it look like murder, and Myrtle being fooled by his lies condemned Aphrodite for the murder and Hector as her accomplice. However, she later realised after investigating that Aphrodite was innocent, but was kidnapped and threatened by Yerasimos' associates so she wouldn't tell the truth in the court case.
