My employer offered my wife a job and then ghosted her

Recently the company I work for recruited my wife for a new position they were creating. I am a senior manager for this medium sized company and my direct report is the COO. This COO knew what my wife does for a career and told me she might be a good fit. I spoke with the department manager making the hire and he said my wife should contact him. A few days later they met for a Zoom interview and he offered her the job on the spot. They agreed on salary, start date and roles and responsibilities. However, this manager told my wife it would be a few days to a week before he would get her a written offer- FYI this is extremely unusual for how my company works.

A week passed with no word from the manager. My wife reached out to him for an update. He said he's "waiting for feedback" and will contact her soon. Waiting for feedback? He had hired her that day and then came to my office to tell me how he looks forward to working with her. This wasn't something that my wife and I imagined.

The agreed upon start date has now passed, and this manager has not replied to any other updates. My wife is absolutely devastated, and she feels duped. After being unemployed for so long, she told our friends and family she got a job. Her mom even sent her a bottle of champagne. They didn't hire anyone else by the way.

I'm not sure what I can do to help her. However I know I can't in good faith keep working for a company that did this to my wife and made her question her own self-worth. Should I go to HR? Thing is I worry about retaliation. I should probably also begin looking for work elsewhere, but I have only been in this job for 5 months and I am not sure how to explain to another employer why I am suddenly on the market.
