I read some stories about the this, but nothing definitive. Just what some unnamed source claimed. Nothing to corroborate.

Do you have a story that backs up the claim?

This is the latest from the BBC over it: http://www.bbc.com/news/uk-38714047

Specifically this part describing how May dodged the question multiple times. The 'vote' being the vote by Parliament on whether to renew funding for the Trident system:

Questioned by the BBC's Andrew Marr on Sunday, Prime Minister Theresa May refused four times to say if she had known about the test firing ahead of the vote.

Mrs May said: "I have absolute faith in our Trident missiles. When I made that speech in the House of Commons, what we were talking about was whether or not we should renew our Trident."
