Hello, I am a twenty-something Brit who has just found out that the my parents marriage information on my birth certificate is completely untrue. My father it seems felt embarrassed and just made up a date and signed it. My mother wasnt there and just didnt know how to resolve it so I was none the wiser till this week. They were never married. (He later went on to marry someone else). My worry is, I have of course used this certificate for years for passports, driving license etc How big a deal is this legally for everyone involved? Quiet correction? Or would this be fines and sentencing- and for who?

Father lied he was married on my birth certificate- what does that mean for me?
