Most likely, logically, she is much like Prince Blueblood and she is a distant relative.

Honestly the why I look at it, Lauren Faust never intended for Cadance to be an alicorn, so in my eyes she shouldn't be and isn't. There have always been only two alicorns and that is how Lauren Faust had intended to keep it. That and why did she need to be one? Honestly I think Hasbro did it simply to sell more toys and have it 'match up' with the other princess toys. You only saw Cadance fly once, a scene which could have been altered.

But sadly she was an alicorn in the show so 'officially' she is an alicorn.
