I think this is just another thing that is so complicated that the writers didn't think far enough. They just made it so Morgana and Morgause are related whatsoever so they can united in fight against Uther or Camelot. And to add to it, they made it so twisted that they didn't even recheck about those possibility.

But for me there are still some things unclear, why on earth Gaius should smuggled Morgause away to the high priestess? Was it because Gaius had to save Morgause, from who then? From Uther, from Gorlois?

Another thing is, when was Morgause born? After or before Morgana, I don't think that was explained. Everyone just thought that Morgana is the younger one, why?

For me if Morgause is the younger one, it would make a better speculation. After Morgana was born, Vivienne had another daughter with Gorlois, but then Gorlois was killed because of Uther and Uther couldn't possibly take another ward (Morgana was taken care of cause however she is his daughter). So Uther had Gaius smuggled her away (although he might not know that Gaius send her to the high priestess) and that's why Gaius said she was the only person had a right to wear the bracelet. Does my speculation make sense? :)
