    If you mean she is receiving your iMessages, it's because you are sharing the same ID.  To fix this, one of you should use a different ID for iMessage (you can continue to share the same ID for iTunes and other services).  To change the ID, go to Settings>Messages>Send & Receive, tap the ID, sign out, then sign back in with a different ID.
