In Tangled, Gothel was originally an elderly woman who kidnapped the baby princess of Corona, Rapunzel, from her parents, Queen Arianna and King Frederic. Gothel greedily wanted to use the magical powers of Rapunzel's hair to live as long as possible. Gothel convinced Rapunzel she is her real mother and has kept Rapunzel in a secluded tower for eighteen years. Gothel tells Rapunzel that the outside world is cruel and dangerous.
