    "Mrs. Tanaka has her husband and two children." is right.

    田中 is a family name.
    But you know that 田中 is a female because she has her husband in this sentence, except same-sex marriage.

    The sentences you wrote means,

    Mrs. Tanaka and her husband have two children.
    田中さんとご主人(田中さんご夫婦)には2人の子供がいます。

    Mr. Tanaka is the husband who has two children.
    田中さんは2人の子供がいる夫です。

    Mrs Tanaka has a husband and two children.
    I.e. Mrs Tanaka is married with two children.
