They actually said we have met Regina's love interest already, so it couldn't be Tink. I'm certainly not against LGBT (for example, I ship Princess Bubblegum with Marceline). But I think Regina is just happy because she finally met someone who understands her and is willing to help her (unlike Magic Mirror, who just is loyal to her). And such a relationship can also be among good friends.
