His. His wife.
'Their' is gender neutral. First day speaking English?
Not op, but I also prefer being more specific over less. Andrew Spinks is, in fact, a he - no need to abstract that.
It's ok to guess they if you don't know a person's preference. In fact, that's the only acceptable guess in that scenario.
Sure, but the subtext of "His. His wife." in its succinctness is that it is a corrective statement, not a preferential one.
Did you understand? The point of language is to convey ideas in the absence of telepathy.
