After Happy Ever After
The gypsy (Roma) version of Cinderella begins at the happy ever after point. The Ugly Sisters live in the same house as Cinderella and the Prince, whom they flirt with. Cinderella's children are stolen and she is turned into a sow. Although she finds the children and protects them, she is killed by the Prince's hunt. At the feast the children beg for the sow's liver. Somehow this reunites them with their father. In some versions Cinderella comes back to life, in some versions not.
