Lady Tremaine

This article is about the first iteration of this character from Once Upon a Time. For the second, see Rapunzel Tremaine.

Lady Tremaine, is a character featured in the ABC fantasy-drama series, Once Upon a Time.

She is the wicked stepmother to Cinderella. After learning that her daughter, Clorinda planned to flee with Prince's footman, Jacob, Lady Tremaine abducted her and took her to the Land of Untold Stories.

History[]

Lady Tremaine appears in a cameo only in the Season 1 episode "The Price of Gold", portrayed by Jan Brandle Smith, as inhabitants of the Enchanted Forest. A carriage is seen parked on the outside of her private property, and she, with her daughters, make their way toward it, wearing evening gowns. Lady Tremaine enters the chariot first, followed by her two daughters. Soon afterward, we are treated to the sight of her stepdaughter, Ella, dressed in rather unfair rags. The poor blonde looks with sadness at her stepfamily as they leave their property on the carriage, headed to the prince's ball.

Lady Tremaine returned and was properly featured, in the Season 6 episode "The Other Shoe", portrayed by Lisa Banes. In addition to being cruel to Ella, she is equally cruel to one of her daughters, Clorinda, when she finds out the latter is planning to run away with the prince's footman, instead of a more noble man to the Land of Untold Stories. Ella tries to stop her from killing the footman, but when she sees Ella's engagement ring from the prince, she grabs the key to open the portal to the aforementioned realm taking Clorinda with her.

She is sent to Storybrooke along with her daughter and with the help of the Evil Queen testing her own nemesis Emma Swan, they lure Ella into a trap. But Ella reveals that Clorinda's lost love is in Storybrooke, and Lady Tremaine tries to kill him and her daughter, only to have Ella step in front of the lovers. She takes her walking stick and fatally stabs Ella, but then Emma Swan uses her magic to heal Ella thus ruining the woman's plan.

She is eventually arrested and forced to do community service, which involved picking up trash around town.

Trivia[]

Whilst this incarnation of Lady Tremaine is based on her Disney counterpart, her daughters are not.
