When Prince Charming invades Far Far Away, she along with Fiona, the Queen and the other princesses escape. For a brief time, she is carried by Doris, indicating she slept for most of the journey.

The group are soon captured by Charming after Rapunzel betrays them. In the dungeon, she is once again asleep on the bed but soon gains ambition after Lillian head its a wall and Fiona encourages her and the other princesses to fight. She uses her sleepiness as an advantage by falling down and tripping two guards in the process. Sleeping Beauty, with the other princesses, Doris and Queen Lillian, arrives just in time to stop Prince Charming from killing Shrek.

Sleeping Ugly[]

Although Sleeping Beauty isn’t seen, a parody of her was told by Shrek as Sleeping Ugly.

Description[]

Sleeping Beauty on her first appearance in the second film wore a light blue dress. She also sported a blue cap with gold ridges, which stored her hair. In the third film, she wears a green dress with white trimmings, has dark green eyes and shoulder length, slightly gold, ashy brown hair on top of which she has a smaller silver tiara. She appears to have green pumps after she tears off the hem of her dress. She has the same nose shape as Rapunzel.

Personality[]

Sleeping Beauty appears as rather slow-minded, failing to catch up with conversations. Along with that, she is extremely narcoleptic, often falling asleep on many occasions. Regardless, she appears to be gentle, no-nonsense, friendly and ambitious.
