Betty Brant

Betty Brant is another flame of Peter Parker who is eventually extinguished by his superhero responsibilities. Older than he is, she worked as a secretary at the Daily Bugle, and wanted a normal man as her partner. Unfortunately for her, she saw just Peter Parker, without knowing at first that he is secretly Spider-Man.

And they actually dated. Peter Parker actually named her as his first true love.

They separated after she found out. And they did so not just because Peter wasn’t the regular guy she was searching for. They did so because her brother was a casualty in one of Spider-Man’s battles with Doc Ock.

Betty Brant appeared in the Sam Raimi films and it was obvious that she fancied Peter Parker. It didn’t go further than that. So are there any chances for this relationship to develop in the MCU? Not likely, given Parker’s age in this shared universe.

However, I wouldn’t mind seeing Betty Brant as a supporting character once again. It would be great fan service if that happens.
