I think it is very likely that Henry is Regina’s father. I just don’t think Cora is the mother. Prince Henry and Princess Eva knew each other and were together in the same castle the day that Cora the Miller’s daughter showed up. Eva might have found herself pregnant by someone other than Leopold. We’ve learned that Eva had a dark side. Regina and Snow talk about this when Snow learns the truth about her mom. Snow wonders out loud what could have happened to change her. Perhaps giving away or having a child stolen away completely changed Eva’s personality into the person Snow knew.
Eva made a big deal about giving Leopold “a pure child”, she wouldn’t have gone messing around with someone else and risk being thrown out like Cora was. Also Cora would’ve wanted to get pregnant by Henry just to secure her place in the line of succession and since Cora did her own interpretation of lion king with Regina, I think it is safe to say that Regina is Cora’s.
They have a secret marriage in the woods and baby Snow is conceived. Something goes wrong….Cora….Cora….Cora….and then Snow is ripped away from Regina….raised by Eva her grandmother. Regina and Robin get their memories deleted and BAM! It’s a whole new show.
As RG said, it’s not possible timeline wise. We now know for definite that Snow was 10 in Stable boy. Regina would’ve been between 18- early 20s at that time. For Regina to be Snow’s mother, she would’ve had to be pregnant with Snow at 12 or under and that’s just wrong.
In the stable boy episode Cora alludes to Regina’s age and how everyone else her age is already married.
Cora: Well, you’re getting a little old for fun. Who’s going to want to marry you when you behave like a commoner?
Henry I: Honey, please leave her alone.
Cora: Stop coddling her. She’s becoming an old maid. All the other girls her age are married. I had such high hopes.I don’t think the writers have ever given us a concrete age for Regina in the Stable Boy episode so I do think it is possible. In Once Upon a Time Wonderland there is an interesting scene with Cora and Anastasia. Cora says that Anastasia is the type of daughter she would choose and then it is like she catches herself and sort of says as an after thought, “If one could choose that sort of thing.” I think the only child Cora gave birth to was Zelena. She very well may have become cursed like King George or she may not have been able to bear another child. When Rumple saw Regina he talked about the two of them being reunited and how portable she had been the last time he saw her. I think Rumple procured a baby for Cora…and I think that baby was Regina. This would mean that Zelena was not Regina’s biological sister which is also possible as Zelena got Regina’s blood just like she got Rumple’s blood to open the blood lock.
Regina is not that old in Stable boy, early 20s at most. Back in the olden days, women were married young hence Cora’s “old maid” comment.
