my wife wants to start playing but I’ve heard horror stories about people being banned and I want to make sure that doesn’t happen. She’ll be on her own phone/iPad but we’ll be on the same network, given that we live together ?. Is that going to trip the multi-account algorithm and ban me?

It won't trip the multihunter as long as u both play your own game. Yes, u can interact with each other and give gifts. But try to keep the gifts under a limit. The problem will be only in the case if one of the account is feeding all of its income to other.
This sounds incredibly sketchy and open to interpretation. There’s no hard limit? Just keep it under ‘a limit’?
I’d not even give her anything.
What I meant was that, if you give her something way too expensive like a stat enhancer or a PI. Or one of the accounts give almost give almost everything they own to the othet. It may flag your account. But you don't need to worry, as the staff manually verifies the flagged accounts for any sign of illegal activity. So you can always explain the situation to them.
Wife and I have both been playing for like two years now. We limit interactions in general, and have never had an issue.
try to not send huge amount of cash between each other, and like, limit interaction, and all will be fine, imo something that helps is prob a pic with IDs and stuff, makes all doubts goes away :P
those "horror stories" are prob from years ago(OR multies looking for an excuse to cry/get out of it)
tbh the games evolved you'll be fine aslong as you're not pretending to be your wife to flame staff once you're banned for multi
ive played with spouse on same ip we log in same times often i send her cans multiple times a day

The fact that you describe this as a 2nd account makes me doubt that it's an account for your wife.
you failed with words "2nd account" :D
its allowed, as long as you don't use the account to cheat (e.g. it is just a work horse for you)
Awesome, thanks for all the helpful responses!
And by "2nd Account" I was thinking about there being a 2nd account on our IP address, rather than a 2nd account for my :)
Staff do not manually verify anything. If you are tagged by the multihunter you are auto-banned, and have to wait the duration of your sentence.
Had the same worry when my girl wanted to start playing, been about a year and no issues. We have sent money to each other, items, etc.
