Bonnie Nettles was a longtime companion of Marshall Applewhite, leader of the Heaven's Gate cult.

Bonnie Nettles, a nurse, met Applewhite, a patient at a Houston Texas psychiatric hospital in the early 1970s. She may have helped persuade Applewhite that his near-death experience had religious significance, leading him to found a series of cults and finally Heaven's Gate in 1993.

She died of cancer in 1985, well before the cult's mass suicide in 1997.

Also known as "Peep" and later "Ti" within the cult.
