There have been many discussions on whether a passenger can be admitted to any OW lounge of his/her choice by COS, but different people interpret the rule differently. BA is very strict, but I don't know about JL. She can try to see if she can get in. It won't hurt asking.
...i personally do not think it is a matter of BA being strict, but just wrong...but that is my 2 cents.
