These are Princess Peach's relationships.

## Friends/Allies

### Mario

Princess Peach and **Mario** have had a long, positive relationship. During the events of first Peach's kidnapping in *Super Mario Bros.*, Mario rescued her from Bowser's clutches. Mario has risked his life to save Peach from Bowser since. They worry over each other when they are apart, and have been shown to have mutual romantic feelings for each other. Despite the fact that Peach can become somewhat annoyed with Mario at times (the ending to *Super Mario Odyssey*, where she demands that Mario and Bowser stop fighting over her hand in marriage, being an example of this), it is very rare, and she forgives Mario afterwards.

In many games, Peach helps Mario when she is around with him. In *Super Mario Galaxy*, Peach, despite being kidnapped, manages to help Mario by giving him 5 1-Up Mushrooms in the envelope given by the Mailtoad.

### Perry

Princess Peach was determined to rescue Mario from Bowser's clutches. Toadsworth introduced **Perry** to Peach telling her that it was not an ordinary umbrella, Perry was pleased when he met Peach.

It even turned out that they also did not like Bowser. Upon Bowser's defeat, Peach and Perry rescued Mario.

### Princess Daisy

Princess Peach and **Daisy** are close friends. They have interacted each other since *Mario Tennis*. The *Mario Power Tennis* website refers Daisy as Peach's sister-in-arms. Princess Peach missed female companionship the Mushroom Kingdom until Daisy resided that place; this may consider close friendship.

Sometimes, there are conflicts that happen in spin-offs, such as either of them winning over another one. In *Fortune Street*, Peach told Daisy that she was "shocked that [she] would run off to win".

### Princess Zelda (*Twilight Princess* incarnation)

Peach and Zelda are in good terms. In *Super Smash Bros. Brawl*, Peach and Zelda watched a friendly match between Mario and Kirby. However, a Subspace Bomb interrupts the match, launching Mario away. Petey Piranha captures Peach and Zelda, forcing Kirby to save either one of the princesses.

### Tiara

Princess Peach and **Tiara** are good friends in *Odyssey*. Mario and Cappy's partnership is complementary to their relationship. They were both kidnapped by Bowser to attend the wedding, with Peach as the bride and Tiara to be part of her wedding accessory. Neither one was willing to go through Bowser's wedding. Ultimately, Mario and Cappy defeat Bowser and rescue Peach and Tiara before they can go through with the wedding and once they return to the Mushroom Kingdom, Peach and Tiara decide to travel the world on their own terms. When they interact with Mario, they give a Power Moon they found.

## Neutral

### Lock

**Lock** and Princess Peach had interacted each other in *Super Paper Mario*. Lock disliked men with mustaches and without them but easily falls in love with girls. However, Peach was confused and turned him down. This resulted in Lock to consider that girls like boys that are heroes.

### Pauline

Although Peach and **Pauline** never communicate, they share similar characteristics. Princess Peach had replaced Pauline, the original damsel-in-distress. Pauline changed her hair color to be more different from Peach. Pauline and Peach were not interested to attend Bowser's wedding as seen in *Super Mario Odyssey*.

## Enemies/Rivals

### Bowser

Princess Peach hates Bowser, as Bowser repeatedly kidnaps Peach and attacks her kingdom. In *Super Mario Bros.*, Bowser attacks the Mushroom Kingdom in the hopes in conquering it himself, and captures Peach as she is the only one capable of reversing the damage caused by him. In the end, Mario defeats Bowser and rescues Peach. This culminates in many more kidnapping attempts by Bowser, and Mario ultimately defeats the Koopa king and rescues Peach. In later games, Bowser is revealed to have romantic feelings for Peach, and his motives shift to winning her hand in marriage. In *Paper Mario*, Peach even discovers Bowser's feelings in his diary. In Peach's case, she does not feel the same way, refusing to marry him in *Super Paper Mario* and *Super Mario Odyssey*. Nevertheless, Mario successfully rescues Peach from Bowser every time he kidnaps her.

Despite her frequent kidnappings, Peach is not afraid to stand up to Bowser in certain instances, and in her starring game, *Super Princess Peach*, Peach and her parasol Perry travel to Vibe Island to rescue Mario from Bowser's clutches.

However, Peach is willing to cooperate with Bowser against more fire circumstances. In *Super Paper Mario*, Peach begs for Bowser's help to save the worlds. In *Mario* spin-offs, Peach and Bowser have equal roles as being as playable characters.

### Cackletta

Princess Peach and **Cackletta** do not get along. Cackletta and Fawful plotted to steal Princess Peach's voice. Before it happened, Prince Peasley warned her about their plot.

While Cackletta and Fawful stole Birdo's voice unaware of Peach's plan, Peach and Toadsworth were hiding behind the curtains.

Peach was about to tell Mario and Luigi that she was alright, but Bowser came earlier. Meanwhile, Peach arrived at the Beanbean Airport to tell Mario and Luigi about Cackletta's plot that Peach managed to get away with it.

Cackletta took the form from Bowser into Bowletta and kidnapped Peach, part of the plan to awaken the Beanstar. Cackletta told the Beanbean Kingdom to give the Beanstar oud they want Peach to return safely. Later, Cackletta got the Beanstar and Peach hoping to awaken it. Peach was free from Cackletta's clutches along with the Beanstar with the help of Mario and Luigi.
