The idea that being a “slut” is a character flaw is seriously backwards prudish moralistic shit that’s so long in the tooth that it’s the kind of shit you would hear in 50s.
Her husband is dead, so if she’s fucking other people, there isn’t even the ethical and moral consideration of by doing so she might (unless they were open with each other about it) be betraying a person she had commited to be faithful to, because that person is no more and is not going to get hurt by it.
So the whole thing is some fucked up regressive crap for moralist types with the social age of a child, even before one looks into the sexism of such last century moralism being mainly applied to women and seldom to men.
