See the Immigration Rules in the link below regarding meeting the financial requirements (which trumps the general Guidance) and in particular the following section:
5.2. Category A: With current employer for 6 months or more –
overseas sponsor returning to the UK

Please don't send me PMs asking for immigration advice on posts that are on the open forum. If I haven't responded there, it's because I don't have the answer. I'm a moderator, not a legal professional.

Moreover, if by any chance either of you got 6 months old savings of at least £62500 anywhere then can easily meet the financial requirement.
