It probably be best to have your travel agent reach out to Royal.  You also may want to contact the special needs department, here’s the link to the form.

Also make sure no Bromine is used in any cocktails. Contents of drinks can eventually end up in hot tubs by spilling and other means.

Whatever is in the hot tubs will definitely ruin any silver jewelry your wife decides to wear into it.  I always assumed it was chlorine and salt water but that is purely a guess.

Bromine is more expensive than chlorine, up to three times as expensive, and the delivery system is more complex.  Most cruise lines will use liquid chlorine. The ships use halogens to sanitize the thousands of tons of potable water. That being said, call the cruise line and ask them. Don't risk the health of a loved one.
