In-laws interferring

So my wife and I have been married now for 3 months and so far her family have been a little bit too involved in our life...
They walk in to our whenever they want, they try and dictate what my wife does and they genuinely act like that she's still their daughter living under their roof.
Now my wife knows this is wrong and she's told me that multiple times but I have to tread carefully because she can get defensive over her family when I challenge her on it.
Every once in a while she'll says she needs to keep her distance from them but whenever I bring it up myself, it causes an argument.
How do I tell her without her thinking it's an attack on her family?

Plop her down and explain that you don't want to fight over it, but her family needs some healthy boundaries and that's what they're going to be getting.

If she still wants to fight over it... annulment is still an option for you.
