Just came across a thread on another forum re UK state pensions, when it occurred to me that English women might have parity with English men, in their being able to claim a UK State Pension for their spouse when they reach retirement age.

I know it's looking a bit far into the future, but anyone know about this?

I don't know either but I suggest that you could google the UK pension service or possibly try this link (if it is permitted by the mods)

I wish you the best of luck and I hope that you succeed.
