esp32 ble server, multiple client, one client losing comm

Question on the behavior of the BLE stack

- esp32 acting as ble server
- multiple clients are attached
- if notify messages are being sent to all the attached clients
- if one clients communication is suddenly and permanently interrupted (say it moves behind a wall totally blocking ble signal)

Will the server get stuck exclusively retransmitting to the blocked client until it is timed out ?
Or will the server continue to transmit to all the clients (which includes the retransmits to the blocked client), with that blocked client eventually being disconnected ?

Basically, does one clients loss of signal take down everyone ?

Thanks
