Luke 18:28

Then Peter said: Behold, we have left all things, and have followed thee.

I answer to my question about where are we told that Peter left his wife you replied with:

Luke 18:28

Then Peter said: Behold, we have left all things, and have followed thee.

Well he must have not left all things very far because after the Crucifixion he was out in his boats fishing.

The statement leaving all things to follow Him did not mean abandoning their families, that would have been a despicable act that would have gotten him excommunicated. Leaving all things referred leaving his old life, he was now a fisher of men.
