Ah, yes! We do wish that Undertale had explained this a bit better ourselves, the explanation we have for it is simply the former, though maybe not so literally, see, Undyne now being the ruler of the Underground has some plans of her own to take care of, and fulfilling them would take up more of her time than even she could ever imagine, so, naturally it gave Papryus and Sans same wiggle room to sneak toriel out of the ruins here and there, however, with Papyrus being the Royal Guard, and Sans being a Royal Sentry (among his many other jobs) their time to visit Toriel grew short over time, until eventually.. they couldn't at all. their hands have been tied. Toriel has grown rather reclusive over time as a result. You'll be seeing plenty of her in Chapter 1 ^w^ thank you so much for asking this.
