Being vegan with a partner that's vegetarian: supplements?

Hi!

I am transitioning from being a vegetarian to being vegan. I'm trying to be prepared and follow the advice given in the Vegan Challenge by vegan dietitians. As such, I bought the recommended supplements (B12, Omega3/DHA, Calcium/Magnesium/Zinc/D3). Might be relevant: I live in the Netherlands and substitutes for meat are sometimes B12 enriched and margarine is vitamin D enriched.

My partner will remain vegetarian for the time being. Because our dinners will be vegan, would it still be wise for her to also take supplements?

Hi, Have you considered asking them what they think about taking said supplements?

Thank you for your reply. If recommended by a professional, she would certainly consider.
