Disproved Theory However in "A Single Pale Rose", Rose Quartz was actually revealed to be Pink Diamond and it's also revealed that her shattering was fake the entire time in order to stop Earth's colonization one final time after Blue and Yellow Diamond would not let her abandon the colony.
Her gemstone was never actually shattered, she simply began permanently piloting her Rose Quartz avatar after the war ended. Her real gemstone is locked away somewhere safe.
As her plans escalated into an all-out war, Pink faked her own shattering in an effort to finally drive Homeworld away from Earth, taking on Rose's appearance as her default form afterwards.
Rose eventually developed a romantic relationship with a human, Greg Universe, before giving up her physical form to give birth to their son, Steven, who inherited her gemstone. She now is half of Steven.

Why couldn t Rose give birth to Steven?
As a gem, Rose Quartz couldn't have a child with her human partner in a traditional sense and ultimately had to give up her physical form for Steven to be born.
Her “shattering” was staged by her using fake shards and Pearl (who shapeshifted into Rose, and was in fact Pink's Pearl) poofing her with Rose's sword.
He is the first and only known Gem–human hybrid, the product of the union between the Crystal Gems' original leader, Rose Quartz, and Greg Universe, a human musician and car-wash owner. Rose "gave up her physical form" to create Steven, leaving behind only her pink, pentagonal-faceted gem, now embedded in his navel.
Confirmed Theory. In "A Single Pale Rose", Rose Quartz was actually Pink Diamond and that Pearl helped Pink Diamond fake her shattering to end Gem invasion of Earth. Pink Diamond gave Pearl a promise to never talk about her faking her shattering.
There are dozens of examples in the show that hint at the idea that Rose Quartz wasn't exactly a great role model, least of which was the revelation that she was actually Pink Diamond, one of four evil space queens whose imperial motives terraformed thousands of planets across the galaxy, but even as Steven learned ...
Pearl (or Pink Pearl as she is referred to by the Crewniverse) is a Homeworld Gem who was Pink Diamond's original Pearl before being taken from her and placed under the ownership of White Diamond, who used her powers to take control of Pink Pearl remotely, rendering her devoid of color (referred to as White Pearl ...
The Steven Universe Future episode "Volleyball" contains even bigger revelations about her sordid past and the crimes she never answered for but her loved ones now have the burden of dealing with. Simply put, Pink Diamond was a domestic abuser.

Are the twins actual twins? Yes, they were both conceived by Greg and Rose without Pearl's involvement. Rose was pregnant with them both. Pearl giving Nora her Gem is more like a human giving another human a kidney.
Steven's gem glows when he's comfortable and surrounded by his family's love, just like in the first episode. Amethyst shapeshifts into a baby, something she does again in "So Many Birthdays".

Just as Pink Pearl is scanned by Shell so she can be healed, it's revealed that she cannot actually be healed due to her scar being as a result of psychological damage.
The only difference is that a Gem/human fusion can't unfuse the way a normal fusion can. You can't separate the human from the Gem after it has been fused. Steven is therefore a permanent fusion. This explains what Rose means when she says, “Steven, we can't both exist.
It was shown in the season 5 finale that if his gem was taken out, he would become extremely weak until he could be reunited with his pink aura. In the movie he was getting very sick and his gem was losing it's glow, causing Steven to be on the brink of death.
