Not being legally divorced (yet) helps but to apply for naturalisation as spouse of a British citizen you'll need to show evidence of your wife's citizenship (birth certificate / passport) when you apply. As per your post, getting access to her passport seems out of question. However, if she was born in the UK, do you know where and when she was born? If yes you can get a copy of her birth certificate and that will give you the proof you need.

I know where and when she born. is birth certificate will be enough to prove that she is British also we had both loan by our name. does the loan affect the application ?
