Yes, she would be counseled most likely reproved if she did not have approved grounds for separation.

One cannot be reproved for separation if it is not trumpeted. However, it is likely that if both had privileges, both would lose them. (i.e., elder, pioneer, etc)

We had four couples at one time that were separated. Neither of them had any "privileges" but there was not judicial action taken. The elders did talk to them but......some had been separated for several years. The only thing that was said was that it made them a likely candidate for adultery.
There are a lot of valid reasons for separation. But the only way to find out is to pry into someone's personal business which I know you don't want to do.
