Anna Brady came to Salem in 1982 searching for her husband Roman Brady, who assumed she was dead. She took their daughter Carrie with her and when asked where she'd been this whole time, she lied and told Roman she'd been sold into white slavery. In actuality, she had multiple sclerosis. She soon divorced Roman and moved on. She worked as a secretary to Tony DiMera. She worked undercover for Stefano DiMera and did Stefano's bidding to get Roman fired from ISA.
The next year, Anna drugged Tony and they married. Anna became pregnant and almost perished in a boating incident involving Renee, who was jealous of Anna and Tony. Anna lost the child. By then, Anna was in love with Tony, but the marriage didn't last. When Tony found out that she drugged him, he divorced her as soon as possible.
Anna eventually returned to her old job with Tony and once again was under another man's manipulative spell. She was forced to spy on him for Alex Marshall, who she had been involved with. When searching through Tony's place, she found Tony chained up. She realized, too late, that she was not in fact working for Tony but working for Andre DiMera! Andre had been impersonating Tony. The two were soon rescued by Roman Brady, and Anna went on to open a fashion company in 1984.
The very next year, Alex sold Anna's dress designs but Anna caught him at and fixed it so the fabric for all of the dresses disintegrated when put on. When Alex had a fashion show to show off his new threads, the fabric melted away on the models.
Anna then met and got involved with Prince Nicholas Arani II. The romance was short lived when the prince was murdered, and Anna turned to Tony. They became engaged and during their wedding, Anna was kidnapped. After her return, she and Tony were properly married and resided in Salem.
It was at that time that Anna would meet art dealer, Claus Van Zandt. The man was a charlatan and only stole profits from the art she sold him. Claus later kidnapped Tony, and Anna was blamed for that and the art theft. She had a devilish time trying to prove herself. When she proved she didn't have anything to do with the art dealings, she was let go.
Tony didn't return from his disappearance, but Anna received a court order saying that Tony divorced her! She left Salem afterwards and has been said to be residing in Europe ever since.
Anna returned to Salem and was reunited with Tony when he was found on the Island in exile. Stefano had put him there. They got back together, went island hopping and upon their return, Anna didn't get a proposal she expected from Tony, so she dumped him and started working for a rival advertising company.
Anna became jealous of Tony's business relationship with Kate and hoped for a marriage proposal from him. After Anna's struggles to get Tony to propose, he finally did and they got married. The advertising agency Anna ran went bankrupt, and Tony asked her to work for him. At first, she refused, but finally accepted on the condition that they would work together, side by side.
Tony's father, Stefano, came out of this vegetative state, so Anna and Tony moved into the DiMera mansion, in an effort to claim what's rightfully Tony's.

Anna and John discuss his impending divorce, inside the pub. John seems very distracted, but says he knew this already. Anna encourages him to try to hold on to his marriage. John starts seeing double and has a hard time hearing Anna. He seems to have a seizure, and Anna asks if he's okay. He says he's fine and Anna says Marlena brings out the best in him. She'd like to see John better, she says. As she talks, John sees double again and passes out on the floor. Anna yells for someone to call 911.
Anna brings John to the hospital. He has had a seizure and convulsions, she explains as Kayla examines him. He's not an easy patient. Anna gives a call to Marlena and asks her to come to the trauma center. Marlena rushes over and Anna explains what happened. He's currently getting a brain scan. Marlena runs to John, and meanwhile, Kayla looks at John's x-rays and says, "Oh my God!" She wonders how this is possible.
Back in the trauma center, John pulls his coat on, and is ready to go. He says if he's not dying, he should go. Kayla isn't sure if he is dying or not but needs more tests. John refuses her. Someone calls and he rushes off, leaving Anna and Kayla worried about how Marlena has already suffered enough. Kayla says John could be headed for disaster.
Inside the pub, Lexi and Hope have tea and discuss how happy Lexi is to have quit her job as Chief of Staff. She can now attend therapy sessions with Theo. Talk turns to Abe and Hope thinks what he did was noble, standing up to the Mayor. Hope thinks Abe can get more money working head of security somewhere. She wishes Abe could have stayed and helped her put Stefano away. Lexi says Abe is still planning on doing that but not with the police behind him.
Nearby, Anna joins Marlena for breakfast. She asks Pete for a coffee, intravenously! They catch up and Marlena admits she hasn't seen John lately. Marlena admits John has had some strange behavior lately - even more than usual. Anna has noticed this, especially in the past few weeks. Marlena thinks he's heading off the deep end and finds John erratic. He's been having terrible headaches. Anna thinks it's no wonder, considering, but Marlena worries about his anger. She tells Anna how he hit Trent and says she's still planning on divorcing him. She figures the new John is permanent and won't be able to love her the way she needs. She deserves better than a roll in the hay! Anna says it makes sense but asks if Marlena's out of her mind! Marlena shares children and memories with John. She shouldn't give up. Marlena reminds her that John's a different person, but Anna wants her to give John another chance. "Whatever happened to 'stand by your man'," she asks, "Or is that just a country song?" Marlena is lonely for John but he's not the same man. She can't risk investing in John. Anna is hurt for John. Marlena is flustered and starts to get up to leave but Anna apologizes. She's anxious for them to get back on track. They were the perfect couple once and it breaks her heart that they're not together. Marlena doesn't respect John, she admits. His regard for her changes, daily and he can't socialize normally. Anna starts to see things Marlena's way. Marlena is thankful for Anna's understanding and she says she has to start taking care of herself. She has a patient, so the pair hug and Marlena takes off. Anna makes a call to John after, and tells him it's time they had a long talk.
