Could Applebloom be Applejack's daughter?

It's an interesting theory and can also be added to the list of possibilities. Could Applejack have gotten a child with an unnamed stallion? Will we get an episode that brings light to that? The idea of Applejack and Big Mac having a child together would never cross the rating though unless they're hinting on that subtly.

Well it's not like the show is ever going to acknowledge the Apple parents at all, and it's gotten to the point where this is even a possibility due to even episodes focusing on her past refuse to tackle the subject.

OR: Could Applejack be Apple Bloom's daughter?  Only time will tell.  *Fingers crossed for season seven reveal.*

Not in a million years would they consider suddenly revealing that Apple Bloom is Applejack's daughter. That would have meant she had her far too young.

 

I am more tempted to believe it is Diamond Tiara, rather than Apple Bloom, who is adopted. Spoiled Milk/Rich doesn't seem the type who would have wanted to have children.


Hoping for canon incest in FiM gain :dash:? Nope, Big Jim revealed AJ's parents were on vacation during Where the Apple Lies  :proud:

 

Actually, he only offered that as a possibility, before saying "Ask the writer."

>It's an interesting theory

Seriously?  Forgetting for a moment that it's been clearly established, over and over again, that they're Sisters, such a premise would never be approved by anyone connected with the show, given the shows intended audience.

 

But just for fun, what is your theory?

More plausible version of this theory: Applebloom is Big Mac's daughter. Making AJ her aunt.
AJ was too young at the time to have had Apple Bloom, but doesnt it sound more reasonable that Big Mac knocked up some pretty girl in his class at school? In that flashback, he seemed to be a troublemaker. Not as far-fetched at least.
so.. mac knocks up pretty mare > she doesn't want to keep the baby because she has a life to live > big mac's sense of family makes him decide to raise the kid > apple parents/granny smith decide to keep him being the father a secret > raise applebloom as a sister.
Ta da.

Filth Rich and Spoiled were still in the process of getting together... no child around and neither was Apple Bloom around even at the lunch table with the rest of the Apples, neither were Applejack's parents were around...

 

Applejack also seems to be very close to Apple Bloom acting like her mother. It could be that Applejack had Apple Bloom with a stallion since we can't even be sure when Filthy Rich and Spoiled Rotten ever had their child either so Applejack couldn't be too young to have a child if it happened a couple of years later when Filthy Rich and Spoiled Rotten got Tiara as well.

No, actually. This theory hold next to no merit. Simply put, incest would be highly frowned upon by the creators, but also because of a tweet confirming that during the episode, "Where the Apple Lies", the parents were indeed, on vacation:

It's just. . . no. And that's not denial talking, that's just:

While I wouldn't necessarily mind the writers handling something as commonplace and in need of talking about as teenage pregnancy, I do have to ask a few questions that may make this difficult for the writers.

 

1) Is there a moral that can be woven about this that a show aimed at a slightly older audience can't do better?

2) While this may make sense regarding Applejack's protective personality, the death of her parents is more than enough reason for her to become so protective. Why would they need to add more reasons on top of that, when it might end up breaking the camel's back?

3) Is there any way they can approach this without going over the children's heads and completely destroying the mental image many hold of the Apple Family as tradition bound and very honest, if somewhat blunt, ponies?

4) What is the creative merit in doing this? Will it further the character growth of either Applejack or Applebloom in any substantial way that other story arcs could not?

Looking at The Cutie Mark Chronicles (S1E23).  When AJ returned from Manehatten, neither Apple Bloom nor her parents were in sight.  This implies that her parents had already gone wherever + AB either

1) Hadn't been born yet OR

2) Was elsewhere (a nap, perhaps?)

 

So, for AJ to be Bloom's mother there are several related issues

1) How old was AJ at that time? (She was last on her class & IMO was 15 (but that's another long post)

2) How long ago was that?  How old is Bloom?

 

IMO it's possible but for a TVY cartoon they will never admit AJ was an unwed teenage mother

It would be SO WEIRD if Apple bloom was Applejack and Big Mac's daughter.

 

Aren't they teenagers or something? How old were they when they had AB? Aren't they related?
