Based on the title of episode 15 for this year, I was wondering if we were going to get a chance to see Snow’s mother in this season. Also I have had some new theories about Snow’s mother which may be the reason of why we died. First off, I think that Snow’s mom is in fact dead. Just because her hiding for years would be too complicated for the show and just her being dead makes sense since they have suggested many times
Next I believe that Snow’s mother is no stranger to magic. I think she might have been friends with Cora, and/ or trained by Rumple. This would be a way for her to face her death because we have not yet found out to how Snow’s mom died. Also her connection to Cora might give insight to Cora’s past as well as why Cora picked that particular king for her daughter. (I posted more in a form called Cora and Snow’s mother theory) Also being involved with magic would make her have other enemies, maybe lets say Malcificent (sorry if I spelled that wrong). Which brings me to my next point.
I also think that Snow was not an only child. Based on my idea that she had dealings with Malcificent she could of had another child who Malcificent to revenge on for her issues, Aurora. If Snow and Aurora are sisters than it would make sense why Regina and Malcificent are friends. Also it could have been Snow’s mom reason for dying. My idea is that Snow’s mom was in love with another prince, but after she was married to the king, she couldn’t be with her prince. After Snow’s mom was put under a sleeping curse by Malcificent, everyone in the kingdom thought she was dead. Years later her prince found her but the king was remarried so she decided to go off with her prince. She bore another child, Aurora, but soon Malcificent heard word of the child she told Regina, who told her not to tell of Snow’s mom. While Aurora grew up Snow’s mom faced a death of untold reasons and finally Maleficent took revenge on the child. Only after the curse did the sisters meet, and well the younger tried to kill the older but whatever. Oh, and just saying, this would bring more fun to the charming family tree.
What are some other theories about Snow’s mom? I’m not saying my theory is correct and I like to here other people ideas as well as my own. This is not in a spoiler section, so please do not use spoilers for fans who do not like hearing them

We were discussing it in another thread. Possible scenario could be that Cora and Snow’s mother were sisters and rivals at the same time. Cora lost this rivalry and cursed Snow’s mother and her family (or something), the rage automatically got transferred onto Regina who could subconsciously hate Snow from the start but didn’t find an excuse until Daniel’s incident.
Another cool theory is that Snow’s mother was the White Queen from Wonderland which again would bring rivalry between her and the Queen of Hearts and would explain Cora’s connections to that land.There is going to be a two episode special for this story line… saw the first blog about it just today. Anticipate more announcements closer to sweeps in February.

Snow had no idea who Cora, Henry or Reggie were. She would have been introduced to Aunt Cora and Cousin Reggie if that were the case as there was no animosity between the families back then.

And Regina had no idea who Snow White was either. If the two were sisters, I honestly don’t think that their animosity would just start at one point. We know Cora and I think that they must have been in conflict for a long time e.g. if the theory proves right that Cora was miller’s daughter and made a deal with Rumple to marry Prince Henry, then Snow White’s mom would’ve been miller’s daughter too! So my idea is that Snow White’s mother met Kind Leopold in the woods or something and he was immediately taken by her and asked her to marry him. Cora was furious because, yet again, her sister had effortlessly gained what she (Cora) has been dreaming off for ages. This is a final straw, she makes a deal with Rumple (as opposed to the original story where it’s her father who does it first – it fits better if it actually is Cora herself, showing her evil character from the start) and officially vowes to outdo Snow White’s mother or something like that. If Cora is so angry with her sister, I can’t see the two families ever being on good terms, they would probably want to avoid each other as possible.
Ok, please don’t take this personally as we are discussing a theory here and nothing personal.
As I’ve said before, The Stable Boy makes it fairly obvious there is no such relationship. When looking at theories, I go back to the episodes, interviews, tweets, etc., and look for things. There is nothing other than one episode showing they were strangers.
As for Cora being evil from the start, K&H have stated in a recent interview that Cora was not evil from the beginning. They frequently say that “evil is not born, it is made”. Something happened to Cora to turn her. I suspect it all has to do with Rumple, reneging on turning over baby Reggie and losing Henry’s Kingdom. I also suspect, that she had a hand in Snow’s mother’s death (or seemingly death) so as to make room for Reggie. But I don’t see anything to lead us to believe they were sisters.

It’s all down to how we perceive Stable Boy then – it’s been confirmed that it was Cora who spooked Snow White’s horse and she’s probably helped with Snow White’s mom ‘disappearance’. However, none of this implies that Eva and Cora were not related. The fact that Snow didn’t know Regina means absolutely nothing to me. Cora could’ve planned this all along (as she normally does) and hence not introduce her family to Leopold before. From what we see, even Leopold doesn’t know Cora so if Eva and Cora were to be just acquaintances, wouldn’t king know about it? So it looks like Eva hid that fact from the King either way, and if she was such a good person, hiding a secret from a husband would be a pretty big thing. Now, of course we don’t know if it was Cora that Snow’s mom had a connection to, but if we’re assuming it is just that – then it’s not that risky that they could be relatives too. That could explain how Cora knew so much about Leopold and his family.
As for Cora not being evil from the beginning – I know, the writers confirmed that but if they repeated Regina’s story it would be just boring and pretty lazy. I cannot see Cora being a saint either plus you don’t have to be evil to have a competition with your sister, trust me 😉
There is a story of Snow White and Rose Red that has been presented in Henry’s book (it’s not Red Riding Hood story) and we all assumed that it was about Snow and Red – they truly bonded as sisters. What if the story was actually about Eva and Cora, raised in a cottage in the woods? They both took care of a ‘beast’ that turned out to be Rumple and he presented them with a deal? A result of which would be Snow White’s marrying Leopold and Cora being left with nothing, hurt and vengeful?
Of course, these are just speculations and theories but they are just as good as yours so please don’t dismiss it just because you see some facts differently.

I’m fully aware of the story of Snow White and Rose Red. They meet a bear (not a beast), who is really a prince, but was cursed by a dwarf. Long and short, in the end, the dwarf is killed, bear transforms back to a prince, Snow marries the prince and Rose his brother. We see this story, as well as The Golden Bird’s, several times in Henry’s book.
I’m not quite sure why you keep coming at me about this. I merely stated my opinion that I don’t see them being sisters. Are you saying that unless I agree with a theory that I can not express my opinion? Because, it’s certainly starting to look that way.
Kudos to you if you’re right. I’ve been wrong before and will be again but this is a board where everyone’s opinion is welcomed, even if they don’t agree with something.

Of course I don’t want you to completely agree with me. But you’re very clearly kept stating that there are ‘obvious’ facts that completely deny the theories – even more, you said that unless we have any proof of what’s about to happen, we shouldn’t come up with those theories as they are not backed up by any ‘evidence’ as such. Most of this forum is full of theories not backed up by much more than just a thought.
Your posts felt not like you were just expressing your opinion but also that what you’re saying is a dogma and that none of what me or medchen wrote could be possible. I think differently so I’m not getting at you personally, it’s just yet another ouat discussion, I wanted to show that what you’re saying is not just one side of the story and even though you might be right, what we’re saying is possible too – and as you kept saying you’re not buying it, I was just trying to explain my thinking – it’s quite possible I’m wrong too.
