Oh yes she has a ILR visa. Is there a maximum time before passport expiry that we can apply for a new one at the phils embassy in london?
To travel to the Philippines, for her no problem even with a passport have 1 day remaining you can travel as it's your citizenship country.

Then you have to renew your passport in the Philippines, it's quicker and far less expensive than from UK. You will save time and money.
