AITA for asking my brother’s wife to stop mingling in our argument and insulting her?

My brother (28M) and I (20F) have been having some issues lately.

We’re trying to solve things on our own.

However, his wife (28F) is always sticking up her nose whenever we’re talking.

She has sent me texts about what she thinks I should do. She’s giving us “advice,” overall being annoying.

This woman asked her brother to discourage his wife from joining the issue.

I told him to tell her to back off, but I don’t know if he hasn’t or she just isn’t listening.

Yesterday, I went to my brother’s house to pick up something. He asked me if we could talk.

We were talking in the living room about our issues.

She decided it was a good idea to come in and give us her opinion once again.

She snapped and told her sister-in-law to stop meddling.

He asked her to leave, but she didn’t listen and continued.

I blew up and told her to get lost. I said that we’ll resolve our problems by ourselves and we don’t need her meddling.

She told me she’s just being nice and trying to help us.

I told her that nobody asked for her help, and if he’s telling her to leave, she should just shut her mouth and leave.

His brother scolded her for her behavior.

We had a big argument and we both said some bad stuff about each other.

My brother had to kick me out because their children were there.

Later, he sent me a text to tell me off for my behaviour towards his wife.

Okay, I admit I didn’t have to blow up like that, but we asked her to leave us alone, and I wasn’t in a good mood.

But she still doesn’t want to apologize for what she did and said.

Obviously, I’m tense around him now, since we are having issues.

She’s just annoying me so much, as if she gets off being annoying.

I just don’t want to escalate things out of proportion if I’m wrong, but I won’t apologize just to make peace with her.

I need some insight.

Was she out of line, or does her sister-in-law need to mind her own business?
