Clara Grant had only found out last night that the role of Tina had already been cast. Now that it had suddenly been given to her, anyone would be suspicious, right?
If her identity as his wife were revealed now, wouldn't that just confirm she had used her status to get ahead?

Even if they didn't dare say anything openly because of her status, they would still gossip behind her back!
She didn't want the very first role she played to be questioned by everyone.
