Are you confident that the 11th Circuit or SCOTUS will keep that in place? Are you confident that some fascists won’t arrest and deport her on the basis that she doesn’t have 2A rights, just in order to get it to SCOTUS?
Just pointing out that one can have statutory rights - provided by law - that aren’t outright in the Constitution. You are correct to add the “YMMV” caution - as in theory, it might be Florida’s laws rather than the 2A which give your wife the right to carry. Florida’s laws attempt to implement the 2A but in practice they might have opened the requirements wider than absolutely mandated by the 2A.
I can speak to the 2A. My wife is a legal immigrant, not a citizen, so I checked around a good deal before getting her a pistol for Christmas.
She is 100% in the clear to own, carry and defend herself. (This is Florida, YMMV on carry laws.)

Good for her and good on you for checking.
