Watched a woman lose it over dinner

So there's me and my BF. His childhood Mate and his GF. BF sees Mate occasionally but has never met GF. I've never met either of them. We were invited round for dinner. I really liked them and we were having a good evening. The two men had had a whisky and now we were having coffee before hitting the road. I was quite surprised to see GF making it whilst Mate just sat there, especially since GF had done cooking and washing up. My BF got up to take care of the coffee but fucked up the capsule so the coffee came out wrong. GF absolutely lost it with him. At first I thought she was actually messing with him and he did too. She started shouting "I'm not happy, I'm really not happy about this". My BF in response started saying "well what WOULD make you happy then? What do you do in life to be happy? Whaat makes you happy?" I thought it was slightly goady of him but ok. She then fucking broke down. She started sobbing and turned now to HER BF: "Is this a joke? Its midnight and I'm still clearing up after your friends? I look after your fucking kid (her SD) all the time, I do everything, O cook, I clean, fucking everything". The men were acting like WOAH. I just stood up and said "I get you GF. I really understand where you're coming from. I get it". She continued sobbing and said she had no friends, she felt so alone. She continued having a go at her BF and we left. The whole thing has left me a bit shocked. We were having a really good night, seemingly her included, but I really do feel for her because I totally get it. Before we left I gave her my number and said to call me anytime, she was welcome to come to mine for coffee any time. Just before we left, me, my BF and her BF stood at the front door to say goodbye and snoke a cigarette. She threw the door open and started shouting at him: "you're being so disrespectful to the neighbours, youd be the first to complain if you were being kept up, etc". Now im wondering 2 things: Should I have backed her up more? Should I invite them over for dinner?
