Yep best option and if she gets rid of her personal debt she will have more left every month to pay the rest back to the parents
Alternatively pay back the ten grand to the parents and use the 200 a month to clear off her personal debts with a clear conscience.

The 4k debt is costing her in interest so get rid of it first,why pay interest when you don't have to,it's a no brainer

Give the parents the full 10k back plus a bit extra as a thank you.

Use £4k of her money to pay off her own debts.
Give £4k back to his parents. A regular income may be as good for them as a lump sum - need to ask them what they want to do.
That leaves £12k in the kitty - six from each side.
Get the woman to stop being a dick with her money or it'll end up with them both in a right mess. I've seen this so many times, one half of a couple is fucking financially clueless and/or irresponsible and years down the line they find they owe as much, if not more, than what they did when they started off fifteen years earlier. All they have to show is wardrobes full of shoes and clothes that in reality are out of their price range and cupboards full of crap they've never used or are likely to.
He needs to get her sorted and watch what she's up to.

Go to the casino. Put £10k on black, then pay off both the personal debt and the parents. Use the rest for a holiday.
If it's red, you're no worse off than you were before.
