It's Sharon. Peggy was Steve's love in WW2.
Sharon definitely
Even Diamondback (rachel) was a bigger love interest than Peggy
This seems similar to how Hank and Jan were treated in the MCU.
But in going with what they felt made superhero movies 'better' for mainstream audiences they went with the idea of doomed love over decades. Don't mind me, but I'm a big fan of 'doomed love' stories, but really hasn't this one been done to death.
There are so many movies about people being lost in time from each other.
What would have been better if they immediately went to the comics - remember? Sharon looked or reminded Cap so much of "the woman he loved" in WW2 that they became an item (in real time it took what, 5 years maybe) but Sharon has been the main woman for cap since about 1970. 50 years.
And another regret, besides the ill treatment of Hank and Jan, the original Antman and the Wasp is of course
the FF, who will NOT be the first and premiere heroes that they really, really
REALLY should have been.
PS: I know about Diamond Back... and Bernie! Who was the immediate replacement for Sharon when she appeared to have died (another too often fall back plot device)

Definitely Sharon especially during Brubaker's run
She is clearly his major love and for most of his modern comic run.

Is the Betsy Ross also the Sun Girl character? (and theorized as an aunt or something to Thunderbolt Ross at one point.....) ?
Also Captain America(s) after WW2 approximately are not Steve Rogers. They were replacement whose names I don't remember, but had previous been other heroic characters during WW2. there were at least 2.
As that is a retcon, it is retcon'ed that this Betsy Ross/Sun Girl was hanging around with one of those Caps.

I so stand corrected! She is Golden Girl, this Betsy Ross. But the retcon stuff was right.
