You could ask nicely in the flight if the FSM will allow your wife to join for a drink at the UC bar, explaining the circumstances, note however that if it's busy the answer is likely no, and it is very much at the whim of the FSM.
Wow - didn't expect no chance at all. Thought there may be a remote chance of this happening....but seems as though it's a more common request than I expected, perhaps? How about coming in and sitting on my ottoman?

Seems a shame if the missus is in the back-end and there's a few seats free in UC. Not sure how much I'd enjoy my UC privileges in that situation, so I may have to have a re-think!....
