C’era una volta Article: OUAT Family albero + theories

One of the reasons I Amore OUAT is because its basically just one really screwed up family. Nearly all the main characters are related in some way at this point. While I was putting together their family albero I thought of something that would make it even better.

All we need is for two theories to be confirmed.

Theory #1: Eva and Cora are sisters. This would explain why Cora was so familiar with eva at her funeral.

Theory #2: Gina is Rumple's illegitimate daughter with Cora, unbeknownst to him. We know Rumps and Cora were in some sort of relationship so this isn't impossible.

We know so little about Cora at this point that its quite possible that one o both of these could be true and if they were the OUAT family albero would be come a circle.

bri-marie Theory 1: Except that Snow's crown came from Eva, and Eva said it came from [i]her[/i] mother. Eva is from royalty. Cora is a miller's daughter. I [i]guess[/i] they could have had the same situation that James and David did, but Once isn't big on recycling plots. Theory 2: It's interesting, and I think it would make a great plot twist, given how much Gina loved her dad. But I'm not sure if that fits with Cora's character. She wanted power. If her and Rumple were intimate enough to have a child, stepping down from that and into the role of an everyday queen seems to be a step away from gaining power. I have to admit, though. That is one wacked out family tree.

minervadawn Well there goes my sisters theory, but theories are made to be broken. As for theory 2. Without knowing how loyal rumple is to his family (and why would she? he didn't even tell belle about his son right away), she would have know him only as a powerhungry monster who has no problem snatching children from their true parents. Why would she expect Rumple to welcome a child and "do the right thing by her"? Or maybe she was afraid he would take her child from her. Or (and this is being generous) maybe she didn't want her child to have the dark one as a father. Or maybe she was emaressed to admit the affair to her husband. There are lots of reasons I can think of for her to keep the child secret.

bri-marie Except I think Rumple's relationship with Bae shows that he [i]would[/i] welcome another child. He's also very fond of Henry (giving him that thing for his dreams without making a deal, even though he knew about the whole "the boy will be your undoing" thing). And... have we actually seen Rumple get any babies for himself. With David and James, James was given to the king, and David's family was compensated. And he didn't get Cinderella's baby. We don't really know what he was going to do, or what he even wanted them for.

minervadawn I think Rumple would welcome a baby, but that's only because I know about his close relationship with Bea. My point was that it is unlikely that Cora would have know about Bea. He only told Belle about him after he'd fallen head over heels in love with her. If she didn't know about his soft spot for children I could see Cora assuming that he would want to give up his life and power to settle down and raise a child.

DR76 Regina is portrayed by a Latina actress. Henry Sr. and grandfather King Xavier are also portrayed by Latino actors. Which I believe is the series' way of saying that Regina IS NOT Rumpel's daughter. Both the producers and writers have all confirmed that Rumpel IS NOT Regina's father. Why are so many fans reluctant to admit this?
