Her parents lived next to a witch with a garden. When Rapunzel's mom was pregnant with her, her dad snuck into the garden and stole some cabbage.
I'm not sure if the prince was a busybody or not, but if the busybody in your story was blinded by thorns and then healed by Rapunzel's tears, well... we might be talking about the same story.

MRS. PURDY'S CHILDREN
By Ruth Loomis
Kirkus review
Mrs. Purdy and her eighteen children have unusual adventures especially when Mrs. Purdy is nominated "Mother of the Year" and then declared a fraud.
The OP has settings at private, so no way to send a PM about this message. But he/she hasn't responded to other queries, so I'm going with "Abandoned by Poster" for it.
