Not if the credit card is in her own name. See;

If you are still associated with her because you''re married and she runs up debts and gets into arrears then it can affect your credit score but you won''t become liable for the debt if they are in her sole name (subject to the advice from Mike and Jonathan).

You can send a notice of disassociation to each of the three credit reference agencies. These are Call Credit, Experian and Equifax.

There is some useful information on how to do this on this page
