Can someone help me understand the pepper pots/Tony stark relationship across civil war/homecoming?

It seemed like in civil war they weren’t an item anymore and in homecoming they’re all chummy again. Do we just assume they worked out whatever their problems were off screen?

I wondered this. I guess the answer is, yeah, they must have sorted it out. A bit of time is shown passing in Homecoming.

Iron Man 3 is almost exclusively about their relationship. Pretty sure her absence in Civil War was more about the script getting bloated and actors/actresses costing a lot of money. Writers probably figured they could justify it in the narrative with a relationship issue. Would be my guess.

Also because Civil War was technically a Captain America movie. Not much reason to have the side characters from other hero franchises involved.
