Spoilers for Steven Universe S05E25 âLegs From Here to Homeworldâ.
Iâm not the first person to come up with this theory, but I havenât seen it all laid out on tumblr before, and with the White Diamond and White Pearl character reveals, I have some points to add.
So, the theory:
Pearl was originally White Diamondâs Pearl.
We know that Pearl was given to Pink Diamond a few millennia ago, what if Pink Diamond wasnât Pearlâs first Diamond?
Both the Yellow and Blue Pearls are visually similar to their corresponding Diamonds. Their gem placement is the same, their skin is a similar colour, and their hair and clothes have similar styles. Pearlâs gem placement matches that of White Diamond:

Pearlâs hair is similar to White Diamondâs, as it has 5 distinct points:
(Blue Pearlâs hair sometimes has 5 points, but Pearlâs always does.)
Pearls outfits contain similar shapes and styles to White Diamondâs. (High collar covers neck, similar bodice/corset shape, semi-transparent material covering area above bodice/corset.)
And then when I was adding this picture to that last one, I noticed something
uuuuummmmmmmâŚâŚâŚ.

Anyway⌠So if Pearl was originally White Diamondâs Pearl, what about White Pearl?
Well, have a look at her gem placement and her outfit:
Her gem is on her belly-button - just like Pink Diamondâs. And the whole torso-part of her outfit matches Pink Diamondâs.
I even colourised White Pearl just to see, and well⌠see for yourself:
