Shopped, yet bread has been ordered! (8)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

betrayed

'ordered' is the definition.
The answer and definition can be both to do with communicating as well as being past participle verbs.
Perhaps you can see an association between them that I don't see?

'shopped yet bread has been' is the wordplay.
'yet bread' can be anagrammed to 'BETRAYED'.
Though, I'm not clear how this is indicated.

(Other definitions for betrayed that I've seen before include "Double-crossed, abandoned" , "Was disloyal, assisted enemy" , "Was unfaithful" , "Unintentionally showed" , "Broke one's promise" .)
