They claimed later that they did not know she was nearby but I doubt that is true. They were reportedly told that the president's widow was living across the street by guests at the banquet. I think they just wanted to avoid her and as sad as I feel for MTL I can't say I blame them. Mary was her own worst enemy. She went out of her way to make enemies when she was riding high...and people had long memories.
