Maybe she returned to Oz to bring Stanum back, and ended up getting her magic back by doing that, and they ended up falling in love? That could be a good plot. And a reason to bring Dorothy, Ruby, etc back. I doubt she'll get a love interest before Regina and I doubt it will be Stanum. They had zero chemistry (at least, romantic chemistry. They were nice friends.)

I'd say as long as she's a recurring character, a love interest is out of the question. If she does get promoted to a regular in Season 8 -- again, not holding my breath -- then she has a better chance. But there are too many new main characters who deserve love first. They have to get us to be attached to Henryrella, introduce someone for Regina, do an LGBT storyline, and Tiana will presumably have some form of Naveen. I'm also betting Tremaine will have a love interest of some sort -- that's their favorite form of redemption -- and possibly Drizella, though both of these could tie into the LGBT storyline easily. (Theoretically, so could Regina's.)
