Diana Spellman

Diana Regina Sawyer-Spellman is a recurring character on Netflix's Chilling Adventures of Sabrina. She is portrayed by Annette Reilly.

She was the wife of the late High Priest, Edward Spellman, and mother of Sabrina Spellman.

Early Life

Diana met a warlock named Edward Spellman and fell in love with him. She followed him down the Path of Night. She and Edward later got married with the blessing of the Dark Lord. Sometime later, she gave birth to her daughter Sabrina, but she wasn’t sure if Edward was her father. Shortly after Sabrina was born, Diana baptized Sabrina in a Christian church, Holy Mother Church of Greendale, with her sister-in-law Hilda as a witness; trusting her to keep her secret, as she left the Baptism record with her.

The day after Diana had Sabrina baptized in a Christian church, Edward brought a newborn Sabrina to the Greendale Wood. With his sister, Zelda, as a witness, he signed her name in the Book of the Beast, both entirely unaware of Diana's actions.

Both Edward and Diana died in a plane crash on the way to Italy to give the Anti-Pope a new creed that would forever change how witches and mortals interact. They were travelling on Flight 2331 when the plane went down and Sabrina was teleported to her aunts and survived. Despite their deaths being documented as an accident, some, such as Weird Sisters, suggest that their deaths were not an accident at all.
