We need a third option. She should've stood up, but only to interact with the rest of the group... she could've congratulated the others or just stood with the group... she could've even said her own piece, etc etc

Instead she sat there like a petulent child looking to grab attention. I just don't see how her feelings about Natalie have to affect the rest of the group. She is so self-involved

This. She could have stood up but said nothing and made no kind of move to acknowledge Natalie. Just sitting there is something she surely realised the whole group would notice. It made her look petty and petulant.
