Friendship level decay of other players while they're not playing, in multiplayer

Hi there, first post here :D

From what I've read and seen in game, at some situations friendship level start to decrease when you don't pay attention to NPCs for a while. so, here is my question, does this happens to non-host players when they are not in the game?
I've been playing for for a a while with a friend of mine and we always played together. Now, for some reasons, we can't and we decided to let me (host) progress the game alone for some times until his issue is resolved and we can get back to playing together. He is married to a NPC in this game. If I were to play solo, would he lose his friendship level with his wife (and other NPCs too) over time or it will freeze until he gets back in the game?
What other issues he might face after coming back later in time? Should I create another solo game for myself for the time being or nothing bad happens if i play solo for a while in this save?

Thanks in advance ^^

From the seems of it on the wiki, that's stored on a player level (I'm infrensing on the knowledge of how multi-player works according to the wiki) so it should be fine. However any 14 heart cutscenes can only be triggered once so keep that in mind

I believe is will freeze as it is linked to in game player time.

The same way Clint can be paused for tool repairs when the player is offline.
