How old were rhaegar and elia at the time of their wedding? I received an asshole anon telling me that rhaegar had all the right to cast elia and her kids(this is a tendency I’ve noticed a lot, they never refer to them as rhaegar’s kids) aside because he was seventeen when he was forced to marry the old crown elia. My calculations say he was at least ninteen, and wasn’t elia only two years older than him?

Elia was older, but not much older. Rhaegar was 20/21 at the time of their wedding, and Elia was 22-24. That’s not a big age difference at all.
