Yup. I had to do this with someone over situation involving my spouse (we all work at the same large agency). It sucks. I haven't run into her, but if it comes up I might give a short explanation, but I hope that doesn't happen.

And never recommend her for anything ever again.

Gray rock her. Don’t tell her why. Be polite, but no more lunches, no more vacations. It is over. Hopefully, she will get message and leave the firm.
From here on in, NEVER refer any friend or relative to your workplace.The ending is never pretty and this is the lesson you learned.

If you mention it to her, then you are just as bad as her.
You both sound very immature.

Climbers are the worst and completely incurable. She’s a narcissist. Drop her like a red hot poker and don’t look back.
