I wouldn't be surprised if she does. Look at how she tries to hide the unsightly parts of her own life.

She better be careful around Simon, because he would not hesitate to dump her on her ass.

Yyyyeah. I think there's already a serious rift. Chyou is in disgrace with all of her relatives, but Luci is the most upset, because she's the one who loves Shiv. That's not getting fixed any time soon.
I suspect that most of the Finns will prefer to avoid Chyou, though. They'll be a lot more concerned about cleaning up the mess, making sure Shiv is on his feet, talking with other folks at Blues Moon, and so on.
