Cora is indeed the miller’s daugher. We see her with a rather drunken looking father. She delivers flour to the castle. A princess trips her and then claims she just fell and that Cora ruined her shoes. The king makes Cora get down on her knees and appologize. The princess is very snooty. The king says her name is Eva- so I assume this is likely Snow’s mom, although she certainly doesn’t act like the woman we met in “The Queen is Dead.” There is a prince too- Prince Henry. If he is Eva’s brother and is indeed Regina’s father…Regina and Snow are cousins
See I don’t understand this why then was Eva’s Kingdom not in debt, but Henry’s was I don’t by the fact that they are related in anyway. I think Henry lost his kingdom and Eva which I believe is a separate kingdom survive and Cora was jealous of this fact but I could be wrong. 😕
Henry and Eva could’ve been siblings and grown up in the same castle together in their father’s, King Xavier’s, kingdom. As the firstborn son, Henry came to power, but it was so impoverished it went bust. Princess Eva became Queen Eva by her marriage to King Leopold, whose neighboring kingdom seemed strong and wealthy.

Oh. That’s a good point.
AngieBelle: do they call the young prince Henry? Or do we just see a young Prince?Yes, they call him Prince Henry, although he looks nothing like Regina’s father.
Wow. Family tree is all messed up. So Henry and Eva are sisters but Leopold doesn’t recognize Henry when he comes to thank Regina for saving Snow. Or Cora, who we assume became the Queen after Rumple spun the straw into gold, which then made her Eva’ sister-in-law. If Henry lost his kingdom (to George?) then why is it that Eva didn’t help out her brother (if not war then moneywise. Let him and his child live at the castle at least)
"He was a lot of things to me" "The only conclusion was love"March 4, 2013 at 8:21 pm #177047theeviloneParticipantI dont recall Henry and Eva being siblings. I also saw the first 10 min of the episode and I believe Eva was there just visiting. The king intending to marry prince Henry off to her. Which is why Cora tells the king while dancing with him that instead of sharing the gold she can make he can just whore the prince off. I recall a lot of people in the audiance going ooohhh when she said that.
March 4, 2013 at 8:23 pm #177051RumplesGirlKeymasterOh my. Two different interpretations over the same scene. GREAT. 😆 Back to the drawing board.
"He was a lot of things to me" "The only conclusion was love"March 4, 2013 at 8:33 pm #177054angiebelleParticipantOh! You know what- you are probably right- Eva was just visiting and is not a sibling then. That makes more sense actually. I forgot about that comment Cora made.
March 4, 2013 at 8:37 pm #177055RumplesGirlKeymasterAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA.
Ok. So Eva was Henry Sr. intended until Cora proclaims she can spin straw into gold (I wonder if she’s in love with Henry). Then she makes a deal with Rumple: gold for Regina. Henry and Cora marry and she has Regina. Also, I think Rumple and Cora had a little somthing something but Cora was using Rumple to learn magic because she craves power over anything. She finds his dagger. She uses it against him to make him relinquish his claim on Regina and tells him that she never loved him, just learning the monsters weaknesses, thus breaking Rumple’s heart and breaking his soul even furhter (this woman MUST DIE). In retaliation for this, Rumple has George take over Henry’s kingdom and Henry and Cora are forced down several rungs of the ladder where Cora begins to plot how to get Regina on the throne. Meanwhile, Eva has married Leopold and had Snow and has the life Cora was supposed to have with Henry. BOOM.
"He was a lot of things to me" "The only conclusion was love"March 5, 2013 at 7:40 am #177260PheeParticipantI’m feeling sorry for poor old Henry. Had always wondered how he’d ended up with the likes of Cora, and now it’s clear that he was just a pawn who got trapped in her little game.
March 5, 2013 at 8:08 am #177264laurieanneParticipantI don’t think Cora was in love with Henry – (although there was a little flirting) I think she was after the status, and wanting to rise above being the miller’s daughter. Eva was really snotty to her so I think that flipped a switch in Cora to want to get back at Eva…which she obviously did to an amazing degree. Definitely agree that Henry was a pawn, and he got used to Cora getting her way, once she got magic.
March 5, 2013 at 1:47 pm #177289RumplesGirlKeymasterI don’t know…. in a recent interview Rose (young Cora) said that she was in love and it ended badly. Based on that terrible kiss with Rumple, some spoiler pics, and Cora’s general badness I think she was in love with Henry (possibly only because he was the heir to the throne) and that Rumple was actually in love with her. Her love for Henry may not have been pure, because I think the second he lost his kingdom she fell out of love wit him, but at the time she may have thought herself wildly in love with the handsome young Prince.
"He was a lot of things to me" "The only conclusion was love"March 5, 2013 at 1:58 pm #177294jbwood5ParticipantShe’s in love with the power of being queen and then they lose their kingdom (it ending badly).
