Just click on 'add spouse', put in details. Don't forget that the spouses appear in age order, so if spouse 2 in the older, they will appear before spouse 1. If you want to alter this, change the DOB and make a note on the record.

Close the My tree window, wait a bit, then open it again. It might have sorted itself out by then.

I think GR has a bit of a time lag in some areas.

If it's still not right in a day or so, you could try deleting and putting back, that sometimes helps.
