There is mention of a “beloved disciple” in the scriptures. It would have been unusual for a practicing Jew of those times to be unmarried beyond his teen years. Maybe that disciple was His spouse. Someday He’ll tell us.

Someday Hell tell us. That is absurd. To have a female apostle would be more unusual than being celibate, Jn. 13:23; cf. Mt. 26:20) as would giving His mother into her care, (Jn. 19:26) as would to be one of those fishing with naked (or barely clothed) Peter, (Jn. 21:7,20) and being the writer of the 4th gospel, (Jn. 21:21-24) attributed to John.
This is what comparing Scripture with Scripture reveals, but The simple believeth every word: but the prudent man looketh well to his going. (Proverbs 14:15)

Brush up on your bible. That was John and it was not all that unusual.
People seem to forget that Jesus wasn’t just one of us, He is God incarnate.
