I love it when a good observer with PR skills comes out of the woodwork to speak up. Nothing we haven't discussed here before, though. tl;dr: the OTT PR is damage control because of the sloppy overlap in relationships, and she's ashamed that the truth makes her a hypocrite. Also, the PR in RI was all about him but it backfired.
