Adelaide Kane Previews Drizella's 'Sibling Rivalry' with Anastasia on 'Once Upon a Time'

If you’ve been watching Once Upon A Time‘s new season, you know that Drizella’s sister, Anastasia, died when she was a child.

While it’s something that Lady Tremaine fully blames Cinderella for, the matriarch has been taking out her sadness and anger on Drizella too.

Adelaide Kane spoke to EW recently about the sibling rivalry that existed between the sisters.

“While Ivy probably mourned her sister, there was always sibling rivalry that Ivy could never quite match up to, even as hard as she tried,” she shared. “Besides the grief of losing a sister, I think probably initially she felt some sense of relief that she no longer had this competition and that perhaps maybe she could finally win the approval and the love of her mother that she was never able to have.”

Adelaide adds, “It might have backfired on her a little bit in that now she gets the brunt of Victoria’s grief and disdain and hatred.”

“She’s caught a lot of the emotional blowback from that death, but there seems to be possible hinting at something deeper than just a sibling rivalry between Drizella and Anastasia, but I don’t know what it is yet. I’m really curious to find out if there are like really odd circumstances surrounding that death.”

We’ll be finding out more details surrounding Anastasia’s death in the coming episodes.
