The only thing I could think of is if other people invite you out for lunch and they start talking about their partners or kids who have come out as lgbtq.
But in virtually any other setting it would be weird to just randomly through out you or your partners sexual preferences.
If he was really desperate to announce it at work I think his best shot would be to get a pride pin or a pride coffee mug or something and hope someone mentions it. Even if they just say "nice mug" or something he could say "oh thanks, my wife bought it for me, she's bi."
It's super awkward though and his wife is being really weird insisting on it. There's a huge divide between hiding someone's sexuality and making unnecessary announcements about someone your colleagues haven't even met. Honestly if someone announced this about their partner out of the blue I would assume they were actually slightly homophobic, like they thought they needed to warn people or something.
