If you are still married (not divorced) you can apply 1 year after ILR (3 years legal residence in the UK) as long as your wife supports your application for BC. She would have to submit her passport when you apply.
If not, you'll have to wait to apply in your own right which will mean after 5 years legal residence instead of 3.

Then assuming you meet all the requirements (form AN) you should be able to apply on your own.
