Marriage not registered in the UK

Hi,

I have got ILR last year on 10 years long residence bases and now my citizenship is due. I have a question regarding my previous marriage. I got married and divorced around 12 years ago before coming here and now my marital status single. I always ticked that I am divorced on all my previous visa extension forms. Now in citizenship form they have a complete section of spouse, do I still need to complete that section even my marriage and divorced not registered here in the UK? I am confused because in that form they are asking for previous marriage(s)?

Thank you for your time.

Hope to get relevant replies.

Regards
Zeeshan

It is not appropriate to fill in partner (spouse) details in Q1.35+ as you no longer have a spouse.

But: Yes, details of all previous marriages/partners is clearly required.
(Q1.41 onwards in form AN).
