Competitive mother in law

My husband recently graduated with his masters and I shared my plans with his sister to buy him a necklace because he did not have one and to ask in the country she’s in how much gold is because I wanted to see if I’d be cheaper. I also asked her not to tell anyone. She then ghosted me for 2 weeks and two days before my mother in law and father in now are headed to the states she call me and tell me that she didn’t have time to check so she asked them instead. She also tells me that his mom got him the necklace instead. The same necklace I had already custom ordered off Etsy for him. 😭 she then presented it to him the morning of his graduation, I assume to make sure I don’t get to him first with my necklace and make a huge fuss about it. It is not 3 days later and I haven’t given him the necklace I got and idk how to approach the situation while still making sure he knows how crazy she acted without making him feel the need to defend her. Any tips?
