I'm kind of glad they didn't have one, sicne between they are handed out like candy at a parade (and since Zades and Regal Believer had one it has been cheapened in my view).

But we have two True Love confirmations; the UW test and the pixie dust flower (actually three since Hook got clippy!Rumple out of Emma's head and the only other person to do that was Henry, Emma's other True Love. Four if you count lighting the Promethean flame). Time to stop living in denial and accept canon.

Also, may I remind you that Emma is not real? Hook isn't real. Neither of them are real. They are what the writers say they are and the writers (and production team ie. a promo saying "[Emma] lost her one true love [Hook]" have said (in interviews and in show) that they are true love. Emma and Hook aren't real people being forced together by A&E, they are fictional characters and if the writers say they are X Y or Z then that is canon.
