Profile has spouse yet marked as "unmarried" on ancestor's descendant chart

This question concerns the profile of Beatrice May Bartram (Bartram-556) who was married to Arthur John Orris.

For some reason on the descendants chart dropdown of her ancestor Andrew Kingsbury (Kingsbury-793) she is shown along with her siblings as expected, but with "[unmarried]" alongside:

Beatrice May (Bartram) Orriss ancestors (30 May 1914 - 2000) [unmarried]

I am not sure how to remove this tag, and I have not seen it on other descendant charts with her on, though I have not looked extensively!

I  have tried removing then reattaching her husband, but it has made no difference.

I'm probably missing something simple, I admit!

Thanks,

Will

True: that does not help. Once the radio button for "no spouse" has been selected, there is no way to un-select it. Nor is it automatically unselected when a spouse is added.

It is not always easily noticed that a person remains "unmarried" although they have a spouse. The descendant chart of a fifth-generation ancestor is one of the few places where this gets noticeable. Still, it's very annoying.

It has been mentioned in G2G before.
