The most common reaction of the wives of transgender people is disbelief followed by anger followed by accusations of betrayal. This usually happens with 24 hours and for most coming-out conversations within 24 minutes.
If you are going to tell her then have an answer to why you betrayed her, why you hid this from her, why you did not trust her to tell her.
I know so many trans-women who have been floored by the "betrayal question" so prepare for it.
