How do I show that my parents were once married, even though they have ID's showing otherwise? [closed]

I can't believe I did this...my dad, [Hayman-887] and my mother [Smith-234663] were married on Oct 13, 1961.  I just forgot (somehow) to mention that they were both married when I and my two brothers were born.  I know the date from family resources.  I believe I got the exact date from my dad, or my aunt - or a combination of both.  I always knew it was on a Friday the 13th, as my mom always liked to laugh about that.  They were married in Atlanta, Fulton, Georgia, USA (sadly, at the moment, I have no sources!).  They were married for about 20 years, and they were divorced sometime in 1983 in Leavenworth, Leavenworth, Kansas.

I can definitely take more pics of pictures showing my parents with children, but they would be younger images of me...would this help?
closed with the note: I believe I found the answer - one thing was my dad had a source that was missing info on his birth, I entered a new one.  Hopefully this helps?

On their profiles there should be an option to edit the marriage field.
BUT, even if you have filled that in (correctly or otherwise), if either of them is still living, the marriage will not show to anyone not on the Trusted List.
What's odd is that I've gone back through both profiles, and on hindsight, I do see that I listed each other in the spouse listing,  - on my mom's profile, I did not click the "no more spouses" which I just did, but my dad is in there, and is listed in her bio.  The same with my dad, I do have my mom listed in the spouse area...It's just when I was trying to put in a picture of the two of them, I had so many complications, I thought something must be up...still not exactly sure what went weird, but am closing this for now.  Thanks for all the help! :)
I also unchecked the listing that hides divorced couples that are still living, and there were some minor, but obviously important source edits that needed to be fixed :)
