At the 2016 Middle Equestrian Convention in Poland, My Little Pony character designer Kora Kosicka stated in response to a fan question that Applejack's parents are dead. Faust stated that she had wanted Applejack's parents to be deceased, and was holding back from defining it in the hopes that some of the show's restrictions were relaxed further down the line. Lauren Faust had previously mentioned that the whereabouts of Applejack's parents has not been planned, and that the show was unlikely to mention that they've passed away. As a result of their parents' union, Applejack and her siblings are half-Apple and half-Pear. In Crusaders of the Lost Mark, Applejack makes explicit mention of her "mom and dad", saying they'd be proud of Apple Bloom for getting her cutie mark if they "were here."Īpplejack's parents Bright Mac and Pear Butter appear in flashback in the season seven episode The Perfect Pear, in which they are revealed to have had a Romeo and Juliet-like romance because of a feud between the Apple family and Pear family. In Applejack and the Honest-to-Goodness Switcheroo, Applejack's mother is mentioned. The shooting stars are meant to represent Applejack's parents according to storyboard artist Sabrina Alberghetti. At the end of the episode, the shot fades to a view of Sweet Apple Acres as two shooting stars fly through the sky. The whereabouts of Applejack's parents is touched on in the episode Apple Family Reunion. Each of the Apple siblings' coat color corresponds to another sibling's mane color: Applejack's mane corresponds to Apple Bloom's coat, Apple Bloom's mane to Big McIntosh's coat, and Big McIntosh's mane to Applejack's coat. Though the extended family is quite large, only four Apple family members regularly appear in Ponyville: Applejack, Apple Bloom, Big McIntosh, and Granny Smith.
