Your suggestions, please.
Miles ALWAYS go to the passenger, not the person paying for the ticket. Therefore, up until now, the miles for your ticket have been going into your account, and Delta has been keeping the miles for your wife's ticket since she doesn't have an account.

Now, finally, she can start earning miles too. You will still earn just as many miles as you always have. But she will start earning them too
