Shrivelled yellow leaves after repot.

#CandelabraAloe My Aloe was doing very well, but was crammed into a small pot, sprouting babies. About 3 weeks ago, I separated the two baby plants from it, and put the "mother" plant in a slightly bigger pot in soil for succulents. She's developed some very sick looking yellow leaves, very shrivelled. I watered her a few days ago, hoping maybe it was too dry (I water her about every 2 weeks). Should I cut these leaves off, or will that do more damage than good?

I am gutted because she was a really healthy looking plant before the trauma of the repot.

I would cut off yellow leaves. During repotting were you removing old soil from the roots? How is the light situation for this plant?
The light is exactly the same as it has been since I've had the plant (about 1 1/2 years). South facing window. It has loved it there. The roots may have been tugged somewhat during the repotting as I was separating ut from this "baby" (see left pot).
