It would certainly fit the themes they’ve been playing with. But how does a photo of Tamara and her grandmother, clearly taken in our world, work into the theories of her being related to the Fairy Godmother?

That’s the same problem that I’m currently having with the fairy godmother theory. I don’t see how it can fit with clues like the picture of Tamara with her grandmother. It’s clearly from this world. It’s well worn as though she’s carried it for years (and she was still carrying it in her car), so I don’t see it as being fake. There doesn’t seem to be a good way for Tamara as a fairy to make it to our world from EF. Her mother going to the EF from earth to become a fairy would be unprecedented in the show, and then there’d be no known way for the information of her death to make it back here. If it’s so hard to get here that Rumple had to do this huge curse, it makes Blue supremely shady if the fairies did have the power to come here all along. I like the dark fairy/daughter of Cinderella’s godmother idea, but I don’t know how to make it fit.

As I wrote in the post above, Tamara could be a half-fairy, the daughter of Cinderella’s fairy godmother and of a human father. That would mean it was a picture of Tamara’s paternal grandmother and would explain why it was taken in our world. Tamara might have been born in our world if her mother were able to travel between worlds, just as Tinker Bell was able to do. (Maybe her mother was Tinker Bell, and her aunt was Cinderella’s fairy godmother). We just don’t know enough about the fairies yet to know why the BF would allow herself and her fellow fairies to be cursed to stay in SB if fairies can travel between worlds. Maybe Tamara’s mother was a rebel who stole all the magical beans. We just don’t know enough.
