Regina Mills

‘Love is weakness’ and ‘I shall destroy your happiness if it is the last thing I do’ are some

of the first lines we hear from the Evil Queen in ABC’s Once Upon a Time. Regina Mills cast a

curse on an entire land to live in the modern world and everyone would have fake memories of

living there. Everyone would forget about where they came from. They wouldn’t remember their

family or the magic. The only one who knew was the one who cast the curse. Regina’s biggest

whatever she could to make Emma look bad. Regina felt threatened by her, not just because is

going to break her curse. She is a protective mother and he is the most important thing to her.

When Henry was kidnapped and taken to Neverland, Regain says, ‘All I have is Henry and I am

not about to lose him because he is everything.’ About a year after this, she has more people in

her life.

Regina started off as one of the main villains. She hated Snow White for telling a secret

and her daughter Emma Swan, for being in Storybrooke. Regina framed Mary Margaret (Snow)

for a murder that didn’t even happen, and Emma for stealing documents. After the curse broke,

Emma was the first to run to Regina and save her form the town. Regina had been chasing after

Snow White for years, but when they met up again in Storybrooke, Snow didn’t want vengeance.
