Do you think this could be held against a mother in a custody hearing?

Here’s the scenario.
A mother and father (never married) have one child together. The mom has sole custody because they were never married. About a year after they split up, the mom met someone new. They were dating for a while even though he lived about 1,500 miles away. He flew in to see her about every other week. This went on for months and months.
They were pretty crazy about each other, so they had to talk about what was going to happen, they wanted to live together. So, she flew out to his house to check it out. Everything was great, his house, the town, the local school. This man was perfect, he was a military man, then a cop and now a personal body guard. Everything checked out. Plus, he had a child too.
Now, since the father of her kid was an idiot (a drunk, he had just gotten his 2nd DUI) there wasn’t much he could do about her leaving.
So, the man flew in, they packed up a Uhaul and drove all the way to his house. Her daughter loved it, there was a room ready for her painted pink, she loved his horses and dogs. He was really good with her too (never overstepped any boundaries).
Just a couple days being there, she finds out …….. he’s married!!!!! His wife was staying with her mom. They were ‘separated’ but according to the wife, they were planning on reconciling.
So she immediately packed the Uhaul back up, put her daughter in the car and drove the 1,500 miles back home. Called school the next day to cancel the withdrawal (she went back and completed the grade just fine). And just tried to get things back to normal.
Fast forward a year later. The father of her child wants to file for custody and use that ^^ against her. He says “I’m going to tell them how you drug our kid out of school and half way across the country!!”.
She wont deny it was a bit irresponsible (perhaps blinded by lust?), but do you think this is something HUGE to be used against her?
