My wife has recently moved to Id and ported her phone number, but when I recieve txts from her it shows the original sim number before the port. I've looked through the FAQ'S and the answers provided, going to settings etc... don't work as the instructions don't match what is on the screen.

Okay
A quick fix is to simply stop using RCS chat features on her new Galaxy phone. The Google Assistant on her phone should be able to help with turning off chat features in the Google Messages app.
Another possibly is the mobile number in the Google Account your wife uses with her phone, could be incorrect. You can check this online, if you Sign In with the same account, at https://www.google.com.
