Hello,

Thanks for posting your query.

You can marry her but there is a risk of she getting aborted due to a condition called Erythroblastosis foetalis.
Your wife needs to take a Anti Rh-D antibodies before you plan to conceive.
So you can consult a physician when you plan to conceive and proceed accordingly.

Hope I have answered your query.

Wishing you good health.

Regards,
