I've talked to her about eating as gently as I could, she eats about 1.5 times as much as I do. Most of the time when she gets home in the eve. she is too tired to exercise, but we know that is what she needs.

Ask her to join you in a stroll.
Encourage portion control. This will require her admitting to the problem, though. I don't know if you are to that point yet, or not.
More exercise, less high calorie intake.
I am in your wife's place. I always gain weight in times of physical torpor. In my case, this is all complicated by medicinal intakes, some of which encourage the torpor. I need more exercise more often.
