The answer

It is the wife's right to have independent accommodation, and she is not obliged to live with the husband's family. She has the right to refuse to do so. The reasons mentioned by the wife justify her refusal, and she is not considered disobedient (nashiz). She is not required to apologize to your family. However, her apology to your family might mend the relationship.
