Of all the Disney villains, Ursula the Sea Witch is up there as one of the most iconic. The baddy in “The Little Mermaid” is obsessed with revenge on King Triton, using Ariel the mermaid as her tool, but why? It’s not just about power — it’s personal. We’re diving into the backstory of the cecaelia (half octopus, half human) to discover the messed up origin story of this fascinating character. Join us as we go behind the scenes, getting the inside scoop from the filmmakers themselves about Ursula’s secret past life. From vital information that got cut from the final movie to the revelations in the Broadway musical adaptation and her alternate past in the “Once Upon a Time” TV series, it’s all here.

If you’ve watched the sequel to “The Little Mermaid”, then you’ll know that Ursula has a sister, Morgana. But what you might not know is that Ursula has secret siblings too, one of whom will make you totally reassess everything you thought you knew about her. Find out how this small part in Hans Christian Andersen’s original tale transformed into the larger than life cecaelia that we all know (and possibly love!), and what other sea creatures she could have ended up looking like. Click play to delve into Ursula’s secret history, and let us know in the comments what you think of the Sea Witch now.
