[Diva on The Q]

If it means that much to her, just tell her it's gray and carry on with your day.

It doesn't matter what the name of the color is, so go along and say it's gray if you are pushed into a corner where  you have to state what the color is. Don't start a fight over a color name.

What matters is it is a shade she likes, so that's the end of the story, IMO. The opinions of others are irrelevant .

I wouldn’t say a word and would let everyone give their opinions. She might start to accept that it doesn’t look right and consider repainting.

If you don't want to know the truth you shouldn't ask. It also should not matter what other people think as long as she likes it. Now that being said I would probably just respond by saying it looks like grey with undertones.

@Isobel Archer  Oh, I’m sorry. I should totally be a jerk who runs around telling my friends to lie to each other. Carry on.

I would tell her that the color I see leans to a purple undertone grey. Everyone sees color differently and lighting and time of day projects the color diffferently. I would also say that it doesn't matter what color I see as long as she like it.  It's her kitchen.

Especially when your friend is clearly incompetent to choose appropriate color for her home.  People have to tell her.  Got it.

@Isobel Archer  We all have been in a situation where we make a costly mistake, then try to convince ourselves that the result is what we wanted. She wanted a grey kitchen, and she didn’t get one. She wouldn’t keep asking everyone what color it is, if she was secure with the result. She is not a child. She is a grown woman who should be able to handle the truth about a paint color. I’m sure she will eventually repaint.

I fail to see any reason to run interference here.  What a meddlesome person to suggest such nonsense.
