I don't understand what "abuse issues" means here. But in any case, no. If you need help, then there are resources you can access. If it's psychological issues (memories or PTSD) your partner's experiencing, then you might mention something to partner if you want, but don't put thesponsor in the middle.
I imagine a sponsor's role is like a doctor in this way--he ought to protect the privacy of his "sponsoree."
