What I get from that is that she hasn't accepted or believes she has a problem even thought she is going to AA. Or am I wrong?
Ok so, in re-reading your original post I realize I misread it. Which may be why my reply sounded a bit wonky!
I read it as your ex being upset because you had announced she was in AA, I missed the part that it was Al Anon anonymity that she was discussing.
As firesprite mentioned, I would be more concerned about the close friend that decided to spread the word, if in fact that is what happened.
