Layla was Spencer's crush when he first arrived at Beverly Hills. When he first met her, they instantly connected. They started dating after the Homecoming game. Their relationship was starting to hit a rocky point when she was struggling with her mental health, spiraling quite bit, and it accelerated to a dangerous extreme, but because of her desperation to be able to support herself, she tried to keep him out of it. When she caught him and Olivia in her hotel room checking up on her when she had her spiral, she called off their relationship. After she went to rehab, and realized Spencer had never done anything but try to help her, they eventually became good friends, not jumping back into their relationship until Layla feels along enough in her recovery to focus on something other than herself. In Season 3, we see them finally get back together, until Spencer reveals what happened between him and Olivia in Vegas that last summer, which ended their relationship for good.

Jordan is Spencer's former Beverly High teammate and one his closest friends. They have had a rocky relationship in the beginning. He was initially jealous of Spencer because he felt as if he was taking up his father's attention, when Jordan wanted to resolve his own issues with his father, and felt ultimately overshadowed. There was a lot of petty conflict coming from unresolved tensions between Jordan and his father that put a strain on their teamwork, but eventually, Jordan and Spencer overcame that, building a brotherly bond.

Billy first met Spencer at a Crenshaw football game. He offered Spencer a spot at Beverly Hills, which he initially declined, but encouragement from his mother pushed him to accept. Billy somewhat acted as the father figure Spencer didn't remember having in many ways. Along with Billy moving Spencer into his home, he treats Spencer like a second son. Their friendship deepens the more they interact. Spencer and Billy have a ride-or-die relationship, and though they have had their disagreements, they still have a bond over the game and people they love.
