On your wife's iPhone, go to: Settings > Messages - turn off iMessage at the top of the screen, pause for a few moments, then re-enable it.
It may also then help to restart both her iPhone and watch. Turn both devices off together first, then restart the iPhone before the watch:
- To turn the watch off: press and hold the side button until you see the Power Off slider; drag it to turn off;
- To turn it on: press and hold the side button until you see the Apple logo.

In order to bring notifications to your attention as soon as possible:
- If your iPhone is unlocked, you will receive notifications on your iPhone instead of on your watch.
- If your iPhone is locked or asleep and your watch is unlocked and on your wrist, you will receive notifications on your watch.
- If your watch is locked or has Do Not Disturb enabled, notifications will go to your iPhone.
