As js pointed out, we don't know what happened. I just thought it would be something to discuss since Diana herself brought up the cutesy remark that Kelly was named after her other mother.
I think Diana would be an interesting topic to explore, it’s just that her character profile is so lacking that there wouldn’t be an opinion too extreme for the character. At any given moment Diana would kill without hesitation just because someone pissed her off or be the sweet little girl who wanted nothing more than her mommy and daddy to love each other and be happy. This kid saw her parent’s mangled and bloodied bodies on the ground and acted like she’d just walked past a dead cockroach. But, that behavior goes along with her hugging Nick in the final present-time scene instead of embracing her parents who were magically alive. And that’s another stumbling block for me when analyzing characters, removing Nick as the defining influence on a character’s evolution.
So here goes… The one constant for me that had the least interruption and contradiction was that Diana loved Adalind and her safety & happiness was always important. Because of that, I can see Diana willingly joining the Grimm cult because it would make Adalind happy and keep them together. That said, I don’t think Diana would allow Nick and Adalind to conspire against Renard unless he was obviously jeopardizing their safety. But I do think that if Diana had to chose, she would choose her mother over her father, even if that meant referring to Nick as Dad. Because really, she did it with Kelly; so would it be that much of a stretch if she did it with Nick?
