But i totally agree that they could leave it like it is. They don’t need to do more there though they could if they want. Especially if Bae ends up not actually being Rumpel’s son.
That’s what I’m thinking. They already hinted at the possibility of Bae not really being Rumple’s kid, and they already hinted at what happened between Rumple and his wife. They don’t need to drag her out and actually show her leaving to get the point across.
Besides, leaving your spouse out of boredom is way different than leaving them because they deserted the army. Leaving out of boredom is pretty self-explanatory. You’re bored and there’s nothing else going on. A bored housewife ditching her family sounds more like something an incredibly selfish person would do if you ask me. Leaving your spouse because they abandoned the army during wartime sounds like the complete opposite. Someone who would do that probably felt that their spouse had committed the ultimate act of disgrace.
I don’t see how there is any way this new character could be Rumple’s ex-wife. It’s probably because we all love Rumple’s character so much that it’s easier to think that his ex-wife must’ve been a shallow, self-serving woman.
