Of course for the flashbacks. But she might still be appearing in present day SB, just not involved with the QoD. Because I really like her (especially after Poor Unfortunate Souls)

But it seems that most of the flashbacks will involve Maleficent again (not that I mind, seeing she is my favorite). And from the preview I'm confident to say that Snow and Charming take away her baby to give it to the Apprentice so that the Sorcerer can send it to the LWM where she becomes Lily.
