There isn't any reason for it not to work. Public Mobile members connect to the same towers as Bell customers.

My ex-girlfriend used a iPhone 5S on PM for over a year.

Not sure if she's upgraded to newer iPhone by now. Doesn't matter to me as long as she stays with PM so I can keep milking that $1 Referral reward, lol, a pathetically petty victory but I earned it.

My wife is using iPhone 5S on PM.

Nothing wrong with iPhone 5S except it cannot be upgraded to iOS 13.
