Without knowing the details of the people's private lives, their relationships, and the impact this has had, it's impossible to say. From the outside, you don't know what's happening in someone else's life except for what they publish / gets published about them.

This could have had a very real impact on personal relationships in both of their lives, which they've chosen to not publicise precisely because it's personal and none of our business.
