See, but from my perspective, she owed Gregory that much. Look at it from Gregory's point of view: she was dumping him after a decade-plus of him getting only part of her due to the nature of her job, and him settling for that, and then he ultimately lost her entirely to someone he must have been terribly jealous of. Elizabeth was right to let Gregory go before things became entirely official with Philip, but she owed Gregory that explanation more than she owed it to Philip, who she didn't have that romantic history with. I do think she would have ultimately been honest with Philip about Gregory if Gregory hadn't spilled the beans, but things were still so tenuous between them at that point that she wasn't ready yet.
