Does it matter if both MN1 referees are related?

I know the form says they shouldn't be but after a bit of a struggle, I have found two referees (one professional) although they are husband / wife

Would it be an issue for a 4 month old baby's BC registration application? Healthcare visitor and GP are reluctant as experienced by a number of ppl here

Well they are normally very lenient when it comes to MN1 for very young children. But I'm afraid on this point, they do draw the line. It's unlikely they would accept that especially as it is explicitly stated in the form itself. Maybe someone else can give a different opinion.
