Mother's love versus true love, it's an angle I personally would accept.

I most definitely would not.  Especially with zero evidence.

The closest in-series parallel would be Susan hiding Maggie from Harry, and 1) that was presented as a massive betrayal, and 2) Susan still didn't try to get Harry killed.

Bad Alias:
When was the last time that Justine was shown to have True Love protection? Turn Coat?

She apparently had it in the epilogue of Ghost Story, where she had to strategically break it by bringing in a third wheel to their party. The idea was to have it turn on and off again every time they got together, but we never got confirmation if it worked that way or not.  For all we know, it was on after the time Justine got pregnant, but off again after a session with Evanna, and he can't get it back for Justine because it would require sex feeding, which might complicate the pregnancy and risk Justine.

Bad Alias:
That's right. Also, for all we know, it only attached that one time and as soon as it was broken, it was gone. Relationships change. Thomas and Justine's already did once.
