'Once Upon a Time' Season 5 News: Belle Feeling 'Distraught' After Saving Rumple? [VIDEO]
How is Belle (Emilie de Ravin) grappling with the decision she made to protect Rumple (Robert Carlyle) on ABC's Once Upon a Time?
Belle saved Rumple recently on Once Upon a Time but she wound up sending Gaston into the River of Lost Souls in the process. Belle now has to think about the consequences of her action.
"Belle is very distraught because she did something that she never ever really wanted to do," Once Upon a Time co-creator Edward Kitsis told TVLine recently. "In that moment, when it was life or death, she chose Rumple, which obviously says something - but whether she wants to admit it or not is another situation. She doesn't like being put in that situation and she's upset that she couldn't figure a way out, because she reacted in a moment and now has to deal with that for the rest of her life."
Openly admitting that she tainted her soul in order to protect Rumple, it remains to be seen if the couple may finally take steps towards reconciliation.
"We are going to have to wait and see what happens to her," Kitsis teased.
Meanwhile, de Ravin herself is having a much better time after giving birth to her daughter, Vera. The actress shared a photo of baby Vera on Instagram earlier in the month:
Hello world! Thank you for a wonderful first month. Everything is amazing here! Love, Vera

The actress had given birth to her and boyfriend Eric Bilitch's first child in March but had chosen to stay private with releasing any photos.
De Ravin admitted on Twitter that she's enjoying motherhood greatly:
At the risk of sounding obnoxious, it's the most wonderful thing in the world being her Mum https://t.co/J2YQ8RO9hs
