Giggle about wife on social media site (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

twitter

'social media site' is the definition.
(Twitter is a social media website)

'giggle about wife' is the wordplay.
'giggle' becomes 'titter' (synonyms).
'about' is an insertion indicator.
'wife' becomes 'w' (abbreviation).
'titter' enclosing 'w' is 'TWITTER'.

'on' acts as a link.

(Other definitions for twitter that I've seen before include "Utter tremulous sounds" , "Sound made by bird" , "e-fad" , "Palpitate" , "Social networking site" .)

I've seen this clue in The Daily Express.
