Yes, the ratings will be up next week because of this...
Nor are the ratings "flagging".
Some people are so keen to find a conspiracy in everything that they end up looking like total knobs.

She's not going to be some kind of star appearing on Graham Norton, she'll be quickly forgotten. She'll never be booked for professional work on TV again and likely not at any high profile event given her extreme unreliability. It's not like she's a rare talent, she's easily replaced.
