I think it's pretty clear that Caroline was the spokesperson where Jane was concerned. Darcy and the two Bingley sisters conspired to keep Charles away from Jane, so telling the total truth was not an option. Just how devious and false Caloline's claims of friendship with Jane were is pretty much outlined in her letter. She really doesn't want Jane around and makes that clear by her dismissive attitude in her visit to the Gardiners and in her letter.
Is her friendship with Georgiana actually genuine, or just for Darcy's benefit? I wonder, knowing her character, that if Georgiana were not his sister, why would a woman in her mid-twenties show such interest in a sixteen year old girl? Caroline is a fortune hunter and Darcy is the fortune she's hunting. What she doesn't seem to realise is that Darcy doesn't share her views on very much. She very much enjoys his presence and position in society, yet constantly puts her foot in things by her demeaning remarks. Given her character, I wonder how she passes the time when Darcy isn't around. Bingley, despite the fact that she's his sister, must find her somewhat tiresome at times.
