You should file a petition to determine that the marriage is void. This will clarify your marital status.

Re: Just found out I am not legally married.

It is not up to the parties to determine whether they are legally married or not. There is a judicial process for you to determine whether you are married or not.Thus, it is important for you to initiate a proceedings declaring your marriage as void or voidable. In that way you can legally say that you've never been married.
