Really, Ursa should have taken both the kids with her when she ran. Leaving them with Ozai was criminal negligence.

Pux can tell you minor anecdotes about me relentlessly questioning her about timing issues while I write Avatar fics. Because the whole thing takes place in less than a year, so if you're writing during the series, you have to be pretty precise with how things go and when they fit in.
I do it five years, right after the marriage.
I love my Ozai, but I won't pretend he doesn't have issues. He loves Ursa very, very much. A lot more than she loves him. (And she does love him.) Post-series... Sometimes they have to work together to save the grandkids, and there is at least one AU of mine where Ursa is the one who comforts him after he almost breaks himself, but Ozai broke their marriage well before the series started.
