In one of the latest episode ‘Nothing Like It In The World’, it was established that Stormfront, previously used to go by the name Liberty. However, she vanished back in 1979 after committing a serious crime. It is left up to the viewers to speculate how she rebranded her image and identity.

Not only that she changed her name so as to not have any links with Liberty because one of her powers also includes slowing the ageing process. All of this put forth the fact that Stormfront was always violent and racist, but it is possible that there could be another reason for her disappearance from the public eye.

The Reddit user suggests that she could be Homelander’s biological mother and Homelander's age certainly fits the connection. Fans know that Vought engineered Compound V, which was injected in babies to give them superpowers, along with this, Homelander’s character doesn’t know anything of his family or parents.

Hence, it could be possible that Stormfront aka Liberty was his mother. Perhaps, she gave up Homelander immediately after he was born or she could have given her DNA so that the Vought could make a test tube baby, who later emerged to be Homelander.
