This is WRONG for this to happen. I've tagged this for staff attention so they can look into it (not saying they will change it but it is worth a try).

The Recent Comments widget display does not have a configuration we can set to exclude the display of comments approved on private posts. If you wish you can use a text widget and create your own but it will not update automatically.
