Whether you have funded the purchase of the property for your wife but still is your wife is the absolute owner of the property and after her demise and id she dies intestate ,all the legal heirs becomes the equal owner of her property .And you would be one of them.

Yes your wife has 50% share which will devolve upon all the legal heirs of your wife like husband, son and daughter. It is better to get a release deed in your favour from your wife if she is alive.

Share of your wife will be governed by the law of succession governing her.
