The character who is (supposedly) "done to death by slanderous tongues" is Hero. The full quote is "Done to death by slanderous tongues, was the Hero that here lies, death in guerdon of her wrongs, gives her fame which never dies, so the life that died in shame, lives in death in glorious fame."
Hero

Everybody in this play is a gossip; they love nothing more than to discuss each others' private lives. Sometimes they are malicious (especially Don John) and sometimes not. There is no character in the play that is the fussy kind of character that the Nurse is in Romeo and Juliet.

Benedick eavesdrops on a conversation in which it is revealed that Beatrice is in love with him, but is sadly put off by his attitude. Of course he is meant to overhear this conversation. Beatrice then is allowed to eavesdrop on a conversation in which it is revealed that Benedick is pining for her. This is all part of Don Pedro's and Leonato's plan to get them together.
