I can see this actually being a plot point in the books, Bendis seems to be setting up a critique of gossip style journalism with this story. So the idea that the love life of one of the best investigative reporters in the world will be the story rather than her work seems to fit in with that. She'll be trying to make an important substantive argument with her new book, but the story will be overshadowed by her relationship and family. It seems so on the nose.
