I had all the shows of DALS translated, that is the parts wth Alizee in them of course. Here is the link to the video in my drive.

Seeing how it's a tv show and with the ratings it got in the previous three years a significant show at that I'd say, you would think they would have the participants, at least the "Stars" show up I'd say for a full week in advance to discuss the accomodations there, the make up artists, what was expected of them, etc. Whether or not she met Gregoire then is a good question.
On one hand, they might want them to meet earlier to make sure there were no personality conflicts, but then again, you'd want the freshness of when they did meet for the first time, so it's tough to say.
What happened at the moment you talked about bothered me at the time. To me it almost looked like Gregoire was trying to kiss her at a very vulnerable moment. In the end, it all worked out for the best so I tried not to dwell on it.
Was what happened scripted? I'd say not on her part but the show might have known she'd get emotional talking about the past and suggested how Greg should react. I'm sure they know well what would be good for ratings but who knows?
A moment like this certainly wasn't scripted.

Another good moment;
