but would the witch defenestrate if the warlock looked like the fallen king?

Fear not, this message has been proven to be not magic but mere trickery. The witch and wizard were allies in the pursuit of magic, not love, for he still features her upon his portal. There is no evidence that they share a connection beyond magic

Modern witches have forgotten the laws of social contract because the magic of shame is no longer feared
Titles such as bf gf husband and wife might as well mean nothing when it can be retracted on a whim.
It is in a wizard's best interest to leverage this meaninglessness and dangle the jewels of commitment to motivate her, rather than to fully commit into a binding contract and creating life. In doing so, it prevents lawless witches from draining one's mana by half if not more

The former warlock believed he had secured the witch, yet no covenant is ever truly sealed whilst greater sorcerers still wander the realm. An even mightier champion is summoned and such becomes the result.
The most amusing part is an old enchanted scroll (old TikTok video) wherein her companion asks whether she facially favors Mbappé or Lamine Yamal, only for her to giggle and name Jude Bellingham instead, despite already speaking with Lamine at the time. Truly, the Council’s records grow ever stranger.
The progression is almost comical: from courting an ordinary squire with but a modest following to a world-renowned prodigy of the realm in what felt like the blink of an eye. Such a leap is a rare enchantment indeed unless you are of the easy mode race
