Brianne Natalia Bethel (born 5 July 1998) is a Bahamian sprinter.[1]

A student at the University of Houston, Bethel secured her place at the delayed 2020 Tokyo Olympics when she ran two personal bests, including attaining an Olympic qualifying time, National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA) conference championships in May 2021 in Tampa, Florida. She clocked a personal best of 22.54 seconds in the 200m to become the eighth Bahamian to qualify for the Olympic Games[2] and went on to compete in the Women's 4 × 400 metres relay event.[3]

Her twin sister, Brittni, was a teammate of hers on the University of Houston track team.[4]
