Relationships
Queen Thistle
Queen Thistle is Holly’s mother. Holly seems to love her, while she probably loves Holly even more. Ever felt a motherly love? Even towards a sibling or a stranger? That’s how Queen Thistle feels about Holly. Wonderful, isn’t it? It’s adorable, really!
King Thistle
Holly loves King Thistle very much, although she thinks he can be a bit silly. He returns the favor! He loves her a lot, I’d say just as much as Queen Thistle does.
Daisy & Poppy
Holly doesn't like her little twin sisters very much, the reason being because of their catastrophic behaviour. If they got along with their friends, it would've been pure madness for King & Queen Thistle to comprehend. I hope they don't plan on having a mix party..
King & Queen Marigold
Holly thinks they are funny, but also a bit boring and snooty sometimes. She didn’t want to go to their castle in Visiting the Marigolds, but she changes her mind at the end of the episode and decides they aren't boring at all. Strangely, she seems to have reverted back to thinking they’re boring in later episodes.
Nanny Plum
Nanny Plum is the royal nanny, so naturally she and Holly have a very strong bond. Not as strong as the parental bond she has with her parents, but it’s still quite a strong bond. Though, Holly isn’t afraid to let everyone know when Nanny Plum is using magic wrong.
Ben Elf
Holly sees Ben as her best friend, and he feels the same way about her too. They go everywhere together. They love hanging out together, mainly at the meadow.
Granny and Grandpapa Thistle
She thinks they’re crazy but all the while, loves them dearly and looks forward to meet them.
Wise Old Elf
She thinks he’s cool and wise, but also silly at times.
Lucy (A big person)
Holly looks up to Lucy. She sees Lucy as the greatest big person ever.
Mrs. Witch
Holly likes Mrs. Witch, except when she turns Nanny Plum to stone. (But we all know it's because Nanny insulted Moggy)
Wendy Witch
she doesn’t like her.
Trivia
- She has the same voice actress as Zoe Zebra in Peppa Pig.
- Her wand is made from holly(the plant) which also corresponds to her name.
- Holly is probably one of the first fairies to step on the moon.
