Just for a little local context, the AA lounges in the USA are available for arriving passengers too and I've used them a few times after disembarking if I need a quiet spot for a meeting. Therefore I can see merit to TravelingZoomer 's question although I agree with KARFA 's answer that entry to the BA lounge is unlikely to be granted.
I will be the data point I want to see and report back

It’s no problem anyways, because I’m also an Alaska elite I have access to the AS lounge next door and this exercise will be moreso to itch my curiosity to see if I can do it
Update: During my last arrival, I was able to enter no problem

As do the AA rules, but as others and myself have pointed out they are sometimes flexible and the book rules aren’t always what’s in practice.

Afternoon,
Flying in Business, from BUD-LHR-BOS-LAX and back again, I am currently Silver with BA, and better half has no status, would we both be allowed access to the Flagship Lounge in LAX on the return leg?

yes, you can guest in your other half at LAX based on your BA silver status

Is LAX - BOS a 3-class service with Flagship Business and Flagship First? If so, you’ll both have Flagship lounge access regardless of status.

IB and BA vueling codeshares allow access to the BA lounge if the ticket is 075 or 125 stock and the passenger is BAEC Gold (or higher) or IBP Platino (or higher). No guests are allowed.
