So it looks like a glitch/bug in the app. I will argue my wifes case to sit with us at a sales desk in IST or TAS.
It's completely normal that the system would ask for money for your wife on a separate reservation. It's not a glitch or a bug.
You might try contacting a sales office for this and please report back your experience if you do so. By the way, seat selection is free during OLCI.
