I want to know if it is possible to reverse roles in Family Sharing without losing anything currently saved. The purchases will still go through my credit card but that will allow me to better manage the storage and such without having to log in as her.

I don't know how you wife suddenly became the organizer. Changing Organizers is not at all trivial. To change Organizer you have to disband the current family and set up a new Family group with the different Organizer.

"If there are children under 13 years old, the new organizer needs to leave the existing family, set up the new family, and then the under 13 years old children can be transferred to the new family. Then disband the old family and join the new family."

Note that when doing this you may wish to set up temporary, individual bridging subscriptions to any Apple services such as iCloud and Apple Music subscriptions. If there is a time when a person who is using a subscription is no longer covered by a family plan during the transition they may lose access to features of those services, such as losing Apple Music playlists.

Can I change organizers in Family Sharing? Somehow my wife and I switched roles and she is now the organizer.
