There's a further option of you employing her via your company and PAYE system. If she's going through an umbrella now, you can at least save the admin fees that the umbrella charges. Not ideal but I suppose it saves a few £ a month!
If you're having doubts about the long-term future of the relationship, regardless of how small, do not give away a single share.
Be aware though that if you do go the director/shareholder route then you run quite into MSC territory if, for example, she has no access to the bank or accounts. You'd truly have to share everything to totally eliminate that threat. Are you ready to do that?
Personally, I'd go with NLUK and get a second ltd company.
