My theory is that Prince Henry is the one who teaches Princess Eva to treat everyone the same regardless of rank. Unless I misinterpreted it, he was referring to Cora in that sneak peek when he said she meant no harm. And by the time we see fully grown Queen Eva, it had to have been 20 ish years later because Regina is a young adult at this point, so she's had plenty of time to loose her selfish nature and be more accepting (plus her husband seemed to be kind, what with his desire to the genie for all his people to be happy). With the knowledge of Henry being royalty came to me, I figured he had to be a pretty accepting guy. He didn't mind being so far in line to be king and when his daughter became Queen he took role as her valet. What royal would take such a lowly position? He could have taken advantage of his daughter's position like his wife would have, but he didn't. Granted I'm assuming all of this with only the sneak peeks and few Henry scenes from previous episodes, but that's my best guess.
