Betty Rubble is a cavewoman and the fourth main character of the Flintstones animated franchise. Her voice was originated by Bea Benederet (not counting June Foray in the pilot pitch).

Betty is a wife to her husband, Barney. Her relationship is somewhat more easy-going with Barney than it is between her best friend Wilma and her husband, Fred, who are always at odds with their money and what she can do. Not much of Betty's personality has been known apart from her limited screen presence in the original series, as it was written as a classic domestic sitcom in mind. Unable to conceive children, both she and Barney later adopted a son called Bamm-Bamm.

Character description

Betty is a beautiful, slim woman with fair skin and black hair combed into a bob. She wears a blue dress with black straps attached around her neck, and a decorative stone sewn onto the front. She also wears a blue hair ribbon on top of her head.

As mentioned above, Betty is the wife of Barney Rubble. She is a sweet lady who mostly spends most of the time socializing with Wilma, and the two often make amends to bail their husbands out of whatever scheme Fred gets in trouble with. Betty is, unfortunately, the least developed character in the original show, as she is rarely seen not following the lead of either Barney or Wilma. In the case of the latter, she often mimics whatever feelings Wilma has in any situation.
