I think to a certain extent what Henry (and, yes, David) said in 410 was true. The idea of the Spell of Shattered Sight seems to be that it eliminates the "filter" -- all of the darkest thoughts are left to run rampant. David certainly has wondered if Snow had an affair, but would usually go "Nah, she's better than that." The Spell of Shattered Sight removed his ability to see the good in Snow, so he no longer had any reason to believe that she had an affair.

Same with Regina. Part of her still blames (or at least blamed at the time) Snow for Daniel's death, but she is now able to go "I'm being ridiculous. Snow is a good person who made a genuine mistake." With the Spell of Shattered Sight, she was unable to see how Snow had the best of intentions, and once again began to despise her.

So what Henry said to Hook was true, but there was enough that he liked about him that he usually would not admit it. Once he could no longer see the things he liked, the things he disliked spilled out.
