Should Cinderella have married the prince?

Answer 1

Of course marrying the Prince was the right choice for Cinderella. In doing so she removes herself from poverty and abuse, guaranteeing herself and her children a life of comfort in the royal family. Because he is the Prince, her husband will not be able to simply abandon her and their children the way lower-class husbands do. Instead he will have royal concubines, but as his wife Cinderella and her children will always have the place of honor and respect, and will always be taken care of.

Answer 2

One should not forget about his third wife Rapunzel. Polygamy was a current practice among the elite class of the society in that period of time.
