Marvel fans were overjoyed when the relationship between Pepper Potts & Tony Stark finally resulted in their marriage. Though the power-duo had an eventful and memorable marital life together, the ending was pretty tragic.

Tony Stark AKA Iron Man has put himself in challenging situations several times in the Marvel timeline. He always managed to come out of the dangerous situations unscathed, until the iconic snap in Avengers: Endgame happened.

As Tony took the snap, he knew before everyone that it was time. His last few moments with Pepper have made the entire fanbase of MCU emotional. It was indeed a tragic end to a celebrated love story that all fans knew was too good to last forever.


3) Steve Rogers and Peggy Carter

Steve Rogers, before he became Captain America, had a strong emotional bond with Peggy Carter. However, it is shown that it was perhaps not the right time for them to convert it into a steady relationship and take it forward.

Years later, when Rogers emerged from a sleep that lasted decades, he found his beloved Peggy still alive. However, by the time she had aged well, and did not get much time to spend with Steve. It was a beautiful yet heart-wrenching storyline.
