This relationship doesn't seem real because Robin Hood is the most underdeveloped character out of all the main cast while Regina is probably the most developed character of all, thus making their realtionship seem fake because we don't know anything about him.

In addition, Regina did a lot of horrible thing in her past, including killing his wife, and the writers just try not to go there because it would seem so problematic that Robin would stay with her if he knew what she did.

I can't recall any meaningfull conversation between the two.

The only reason I see for this relationship is to avoid SQ, and while I disagree with SQ. The writers tell us that Robin and Regina love eachother, they tell us that Hook and Emma have this "epic" love story, yet they show us that Emma and Regina has each other's back and they show us Emma sacrificing herself for Regina. So I really don't get what they are trying to achive. You know that Emma changed things in the past and brought "Marian" back to the future. So, as far as everyone is concerned, all that Regina remember is that her prisoners, Princess Leia, and Marian, escaped. So literally because of the time travel incident, The one who killed Marian is Zelena, and Regina never really did killed Marian. That alternate timeline where Regina killed Marian is gone thanks to Emma and Hook's interference It doesn't matter. It was never brought up in 3B and even afterward Regina still imprisoned her and intended to execute her. Dozen peasants witnessed it and Robin remained clueless about where his wife were?! That's unrealistic. In addition, the viewers still remember that Regina originally killed her, that's disturbing. The fact that he has illegitimate child from HER SISTER is sick as well. Maybe those peasants that are with Gepetto aren't familiar with Robin Hood or they didn't know that Marian is Robin Hood's wife So Marian just went from village to village, protecting Snow White for REASONS, and Robin wouldn't know about it, wouldn't come looking for her, wouldn't question people about her whereabouts... Ok then...

In 4x01 Regina learned that she originally executed Marian. She is the only one who knows this, and she's keeping it from Robin.
