Maybe she's threatened too?
I know you're not a fan of bringing religion into things outside of the designated forum, but I just paged through Fox's Book of Martyrs and several accounts of The Killing Times in Scotland following The War of the 3 Kingdoms recently, and some of the accounts included people being roasted alive rather than recanting their faith and even going so far as to taunt their executioners by telling them to turn them around so that both sides would be equally charred.
I don't know if I'd have such intestinal fortitude when push comes to shove, but when I weight that against a woman caving under threats of violence when her own husband may well have been the victim of foul play, my sympathies are measured accordingly.
