“Shes dumb” guys shes basically being interrogated while having a mental breakdown. Shes not even eating well even the servents were worried. I get we always like when characters do logical things but people are human too. I dont think its out of character for her to say things in the heat of the moment its not like this doesnt happen in real life when we are in moments of stress. She could turn the situation if her mind was in the right place but it isnt, shes barelly maling corehent thoughts through the conversation. And about the prince figuring it out, im going to guess thats because he is the man lead in a history with magical powers, so he perhaps got some sort of knowlegment
