Séverine Beltrame (born 14 August 1979) is a retired professional female tennis player from France and the member of the notorious "generation 1979" which provided elite tennis players Amélie Mauresmo, Nathalie Dechy, Anne-Gaëlle Sidot and Émilie Loit. She was known as Séverine Brémond during her marriage to her coach Eric Brémond from September 2005 to November 2008, and then as Séverine Brémond-Beltrame until the end of 2009. She reverted to her birthname, Séverine Beltrame, in 2010.

In 2005, Beltrame was selected by the team leader Georges Goven to play with Mary Pierce, Amélie Mauresmo and Nathalie Dechy at semi final of FED Cup to face against Spain when their teammate Virginie Razzano was injured, Marion Bartoli and Émilie Loit were suspended. She lost to Arantxa Parra Santonja in fourth tie of single match when Mauresmo won the third tie of single match to advance the final after.

On 10 July 2006, Beltrame (as Séverine Brémond) achieved a career-high singles ranking: World No. 65, following her success at the 2006 Wimbledon Championships, where she reached the quarterfinal of a Grand Slam event for the first time in her career—as a qualifier. On her run to the quarterfinal, Beltrame defeated No. 10 Patty Schnyder in the second round for her first top 10 win, Gisela Dulko in the third round, and Ai Sugiyama in the fourth, losing to Justine Henin-Hardenne, the eventual finalist, 6–4 6–4. Beltrame reached the 2nd round in the 2006 U.S. Open, where she lost to Maria Kirilenko 6–2 6–3. She also reached the quarterfinals in the Wismilak International Open defeating Trudi Musgrave and Sandy Gumulya, but lost to the eventual tournament winner Svetlana Kuznetsova. She reached a new career high singles ranking of No. 47 following this quarterfinal.
