MoneyWell is designed to track actual cash flow so if you don't want to see the money your wife spends, then just ignore that part of the transaction on your side as well. I would recommend rethinking this though and talk about combining your cash flow management since money problems are the most common for married couples, it would be good if you were both following the same rules for spending.
