...and now it finally dawns on me why Rarity was present for every episode so far.

It's because she has latched onto Starlight as a surrogate mother.

Starlight reminds Rarity of her mother, so Rarity has latched onto Starlight as a mother figure. That's why she always appears: she wants Starlight to be close by. She fears losing Starlight just like she lost Cookie (in the sense that Cookie never came back from her so-called "vacation", she straight up abandoned Rarity, or at least Rarity feels that way).
