Estranged relatives.

Ive been estranged from a sister since maybe 2020ish after a big falling out. We used to be close when our parents were alive but after they died it exacerbated some already existing problems and we haven’t spoken in about 3 years. We had some friends in common and now when they ask how my sister is doing or what she is up to, I never know how to answer. I don’t really wanna air out dirty laundry or invite discussion about it. I also don’t wanna embarrass them for asking - Even extended family doesn't know anything about it and I don’t really wanna tell them either.

Whats a clever way to navigate to this awkward situation?

I'm sorry to hear that. I'm the eldest of four sisters and we are all totally loyal to each other for life. We will never fall out over anything. I would like all sisters to be like us.

I don't want to ask you what it's all about so I don't know how to advise you, sorry.
