These age gaps might seem creepy due to the difference of the times. My grandmother at 17 married my grandfather 34, and no one had a problem with it.

Naveen was just 20, funny how reactors always bash him by making it seem like he had nothing to offer just because he's privileged. In case people conveniently forgot, when we first see Naveen, he's very spontaneous and charismatic. He doesn't take life for granted. I adore Tiana, but people like forget SHE HAS FLAWS TOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Her flaw was being boring, actually Naveen said it perfectly,"Stick in the mud". And he's right, then they BOTH learn something from each other. Tiana taught him how to be responsible, Naveen taught her to let loose. But no reactor I've seen likes to say that they just think Tiana is perfect with zero flaws and have no problem bashing Naveen just because of his gender. The entire point of creating a character is making them flawed so they feel like humans. Tiana is human while she has good qualities, however she DOES have flaws. Flaws are great they humanize the character. I would have been pissed if the writers tried to write the ship by trying to making Tiana flawless and make her an accidentally flawed character with no awareness of her faults. If they had done that, Tiana would not be likable she'd be the arrogant one. I could write a list of my favorite characters and how their flaws make them great and layered people. It's called good writing to give characters flaws because character development is key in fictional writing.

@Earth Angel why does it have to be an empress of Africa to showcase strong black woman? Her background makes the whole movie and the dynamic of their relationships, because she is hardworking, strong, and responsible working lady. An empress would not have those qualities or showcase them as Tiana does because they lead very different lives. Her dreams, goals, and personality are what changes Naveem to be someone better than some playing rich guy.

It's also important to remember that historically, 16 has been the most common age of majority, and sometimes that age was younger, especially for girls. Aurora is an adult. Jasmine ends her movie as a legal adult, as she was only three days shy of 16 at the start of the movie. The film's climax actually happens ON her birthday. And Florian was clearly aged down. He doesn't look older than 16.

Actually Eugene is actually 23 in the movie tangled. By the end of “rapunzels tangled adventure” which took a spand of 3 years, rapunzel is 21 years old and Eugene is 26 years old, his last birthday seen on screen in season 3. Eugene is “24 years old” because in “Rapunzel’s tangled adventure” on his birthday he points his age is wrong. The candles counting 26 instead of 25. But after learning his official birthday he was a year older than what everyone thought. So rapunzel and Eugene have a 5 Year difference.

Philip always gets such a bad rap in these. If you were told "this girl is never going to wake up and the kingdom is going to stay under a horrible curse unless you kiss her" (because Flora does tell him that *directly*) even the most respectful-of-boundaries person would do it - likely as cursorily as possible - and then proceed with the relationship like they weren't yet at the kissing phase.

Back when the stories were originally written, noble women were married as young as 12 ( although not encouraged to consummate the relationship until 14/15).

It was actually not that common at all, in the medieval times it was only the nobles that often got married before their 20's

Elsa was crowned when she was old enough. As a Norse woman she would be 18 years old at that point, so Anna had to be only 16 or 17 when she met Hans. Pocahontas or Matoaka as her real name was were even younger 11 or 13 when she met John smith(30). She met John Rolfe who brought her to England and married her and together they had a son named Thomas Rolfe. She died from illness on trip back to America in 1617, only 22 years old. Not sure how that story even passed Disney’s censorship back in the 90’.

Long time ago when times were tough people lived less and had babies and fell in love at younger ages hopefully that answers your questions because a lot of those princesses are in the 90’s, 80’s, and 70’s. But that is just the setting of their movie timing.

In the time period when snow white was set bith the age and age gap would have been normal. In fact, she would have been a bit old to get married as they would normally marry girls off at 12. It was usually to increase their social standing too, so the girls didn't actually have any choice in the matter. They were simply told, married off with a dowry and that was it. They apparently aged up cinderella from the original story. She was supposedly 12 in the fairy tale. Not to mention she wasn't woken by the Prince. The then Prince had his way with her. She gave birth to twins and it was one of the babies sucking on her finger that triggered the end of the curse. So the true love was the unconditional love of one's child. Not the love as first sight of a man and a woman.

Always ignore the historical context of movies when discussing ages. What seems odd to us now (which getting married at 16 is actually legal in some US states without parental consent) was not so odd in the time period in which those movies were set. Just like Aurora and Phillip being betrothed before Aurora was even walking was extremely commonplace during that time period when it came to royals and nobles. It was one of the fastest ways to maintain treaties between kingdoms. If we want disturbing information, let's talk about the actual tales that Disney loosely based theirs on... Brothers Grimm weren't known for their happy, warm and fuzzy fairy tales... Also, I'm not even going to talk about the whole thing with Pocahontas and John Smith... I love the movie, but just ugh...

Actually, the story of Aurora is she'll be into a long sleep when she turn 16. In the story, she had been sleep for 100 years so that mean she's over 100 yrs old while prince Phillip was just 20.

WOW did not even expect that!

Rapunzel and flynn doesn't matter as long as she's 18 before they got together its fine. And the Hercules one isn't crazy either, clearly people forget our grandparents who were often several years apart. My grandparents were 9 years apart

None of them were as bizarre as Snow White (and Hercules). It doesn't bother me much since my grandparents are 12 years apart, when I get married or date someone, they will be around my age. Two to three years at the most.

Remember, outside of tiana, all these couples are from bc era (herc/meg, mulan/shang) to middle ages where marriage where age gaps were not thought about. The life span of people during those times werent long. So the ages where people became adults were younger than now a days. Dont overthink these gaps, true some wont fly today (snow white), but at the time period it took placewas fine.

I saw an episode of Dr Phil where he was telling an 18 year old boy that it was illegal for him to kiss a 16 year old girl

That is just craaasssssszy !!!!!!

Jasmine was only 15 and Jaffar (who was at least 40) asked the genie to make her fall in love with him, and when she pretended to fall in love with him they started making out (if I remember correctly, lol)

with tangled in the animated series they are very upfront with saying the age gaps especially with eugenes birthday episode

I feel like the only crazy age gap is Snow White

There's nothing weird about those age gaps, except maybe for Snowhite, and even there that was pretty normal not that long ago.

Rapunzel and Flynn: 8 year age gap 😧 Anna and Kristoff: 3 year age gap 😊 (except Anna is still a minor 😔) Anna And Hans: 5 year age gap 😯 Ariel and Eric: 2 year age gap 🥹 Tiana and Naveen: 2 year age gap 😇 Cinderella and Prince Charming: 2 year age gap 😁 Snowwhite and Prince: 17 year age gap 😨 Mercules and Meg: 10 year age gap 🫣 Linguini and Collette: 7 year age gap 🤨 Mulan and Lishang: 3 year age gap 😌 Ok I’m tired Part 2?

Canonically Snow White 14 and Prince 18 ,4 Years age gap

31. My mind is blown that was the first movie I’ve ever watched of the princesses too. It doesn’t ruin my childhood, but a 13 year old with a 31 year old that is just so wrong.

In "Sleeping Beauty", you clearly learn at the beginning of the movie that Prince Phillip & Aurora are betrothed. Phillip was 5, so when she turns 16, he's 21. Yes, that still seems a little odd and that he's too old for her, but it was the 14th century, as Phillip points out, so it probably wasn't that uncommon for 16 year olds to marry. I'll defend this movie until the day I die, so come at me! 😂

Honestly, the fact that she's as old as she is without being married off yet would have been the weird part for a princess at the time. A lot of the time, as soon as girls hit puberty, they started marrying them off because the child mortality rate was so high. They needed girls and women to start having children as fast as possible, especially noble and royal women, to try to make sure one of the kids survived to adulthood.

We accept that she gets betrothed as an infant because that was commonplace for the time period, but the age gap between Aurora and Phillip is what gets everyone in a twist even though that was just as commonplace for that time period. These "real age" videos are just utter nonsense when it comes to fictional characters, however, let's dive into the original stories that Disney based their fairy tales on and then we can discuss disturbing facts, lol.

It's not an over to 10 age gap

As a History student, i just want everyone thinking that big age gaps were a thing in medieval/modern history (~476 - ~1793) and even ancient history to know that : no, it wasn't the norm at all. In most European countries the majority was at 18, even 21 sometimes. Except some rare big families married their young heirs together (but they would just be engaged most of the time, a marriage couldn't happen if one of the two was a minor), other than that, the usual age people got married at varied from 22 to 30 years old over the centuries both for the men and women. (Some kings did marry young girls, but again, they usually actually had to wait for her majority before really marrying) So, no, it wasn't the norm at all. (and outside marriage relationship weren't really popular at the time, at least for everyone except the lovers) As for ancient (latin/greek) history i didn't have that much classes yet, but i can tell you that there were very strict age rules too, and that they might indeed have married quite young, but most of the time the two had similar ages too. Thank you for your time :) (i'm just really tired to see clichés justifying quite terrible acts such as child marriage, who actually wasn't that popular since people didn't really have the time to care, and they married late to not have too many children to feed because it was difficult.)

Thank you 🙏🏻

Oh god that just made me ok the Snow White one made me literally throw my tablet😂😂😂

When the original stories were written, this was common.

If they’re over 18 it doesn’t really matter. Under is different. Plus a lot of these age gaps are normal when you go into your 40s, if the wife is 42 and the husband is 50 no one bets an eye

Bros be acting so weird about a 4 year age gap ☠️☠️☠️

On a scale of 1-10 creepiness, here's how I would rate the age gaps with reasons. Flynn and Rapunzel - 26-18: 3, Both are still young, 8 years may seem like a lot, but I've seen a lot worse. But the ability to buy alcohol for someone not legal to drink is risky, it's avoidable, but still potential. This will be a running factor, so expect it in most pairings. The fact that she's sheltered and might act younger doesn't really factor here, there are plenty of people in their 20s and 30s who still act like immature children, so Rapunzel being only slightly naive about the outer world isn't as bad as it could be. Cristof and Anna - 21-18: 2, There's nothing wrong with this except the alcohol thing, but again, that's avoidable. Both of them are acting their ages, albeit a romanticized Disney version, but still. Hans and Anna - 23-18: 3, The problem here was his motives, but then again those motives stemmed from wanting to prove something to his older brothers. Also it's not unheard of considering both are royalty and he was trying to form an alliance between the kingdoms, one that would give him control over at least one of them. Not saying he did it the right way, just that I understand the reason behind the actions. Eric and Ariel - 18-16: 2, In terms of age gap, there's nothing really wrong here. Ariel's motives were definitely misguided, but she was a rebellious teenager, much like a lot of teenagers are. Getting married, again, it's a royalty thing. Considering that back in medieval times the offspring of royal families would be betrothed by the parents at birth in order to form alliances, so getting married at this age is actually pretty on point for royalty. Naveen and Tiana - 21-19: 1, Nothing wrong here, not even the alcohol thing, considering the time period this takes place in (1920s), and the legal drinking age in Louisiana at the time was 18, there's nothing wrong here. Charming and Cinderella - 21-19: 1, There is literally nothing wrong with this one. Much like a lot of Disney stories it's a riches and rags pairing, which Cinderella was only a peasant girl because of her step-mother taking everything when Cindy's father died. Otherwise Cindy would have at least had nobility standing. Florian and Snow - 31-14: 10, This would have been less if it was a royal betrothal thing, but considering everything, that in reality, after eating the apple, Snow was dead and only was saved after the bouncing on the horse caused her to cough up the apple. For Florian, not only was he a pedo, but he had no idea that Snow would revive, even in the romanticized Disney version. He is a necro as well. Disney version, he kissed a dead girl, which I understand some people give their loved ones final kisses and whatnot, but this wasn't a goodbye kiss, this was a "I want to get in her pants" kind. In the original novel version, he didn't kiss her, he fondled and groped what was essentially a corpse and was intending on bringing her home to copulate with. Very sick and creepy when you think about it. Thankfully 'Once Upon A Time' fixed this problem. Hercules and Meg - 18-28: 3, I've still seen worse age gaps and to be fair a lot of women who are close to 30 do tend to look at younger guys. Plus, this is ancient Greece and Herc is a demi-god, if you know the history of the Greek pantheon, you'd understand that this pairing is rather tame comparatively to what the Gods themselves did. Linguini and Collette - 19-26: 1, Nothing wrong with the woman being older, even at a 7 year gap, and considering this takes place in France, even the legal drinking age thing isn't a problem since it's 18 there. Li Shang and Mulan - 19-16: 1, This is quite tame for this era of China, considering in Feudal Era China there were plenty of instances of girls younger than Mulan being taken as wives by men much older than Shang. It was probably not the best way to start their relationship, but this is about the age gaps, not the how they started. Tarzan and Jane - 18-20: 1, Nothing wrong with the age gap or the woman being older, I had a 20 year old girlfriend when I was 18, so this isn't a bad one. In fact, this one I even give props to because this was probably the biggest SOCIAL gap that had to be overcome in Disney couples. Phillip and Aurora - 20-16: 2, Remember that royal betrothal at birth to form kingdom alliances I mentioned? Here it is. Also, this kiss to wake her up is considerably different than the one with Florian and Snow. This one was in order to break a spell. If you remember, Maleficent's curse was supposed to kill Aurora, but Merriwhether's counter to it was simply to put her to sleep until True Love's Kiss woke her. Considering Maleficent was the Fairy Queen, Merriwhether even being able to alter the curse was quite a feat. But I digress, so back to Phillip and Aurora, while the age gap might seem weird, it's medieval times and a royal betrothal, so it's really not as bad as you might think. Adam and Belle - 21-17: 3, The age isn't as bad as some others on this list and considering this was France during the 1700s, this is not unheard of. Also, to be fair, Adam was cursed to take on an appearance matching his personality at the time. Aladdin and Jasmine - 18-15 (technically 16): 1, While at the start of the movie Jasmine was 15, it was even stated that her birthday was in 3 days time, so by the end of the movie she was indeed 16. So a 2 year gap is nothing creepy, this is like a high school senior dating a sophomore, not anything bad really. Also, consider this is in Saudi Arabia and think of their customs of marrying off their daughters. Achmed was a lot creepier of a suiter and the real problem in this one was Jafar. While Achmed was around 40, he was simply adhering to the customs of the country. Jafar on the other hand was at least in his 50s and hard creeping on Jasmine. John and Pocahontas - 20-18: 1, This is not a creepy age gap at all. Only bridge this relationship had to cross was the social one, which like Tarzan and Jane, included a language barrier, but this one came with the added issue of the Natives versus the Colonizers in terms of civilization barriers as well.

18 and 21 are both young adult ages, plus only a 3 year age gap. Think about it this way, Anna as 20 and Kristoff as 23, that would only be in two years time.

3:30 How did they get away with that?

I was so suprised at snow whites one

It is refreshing to see some instances where it’s the woman who is older. It’s a nice change, I mean my girlfriend is older than me.

0:50 "Flynn Ryder" is not 26 in the movie, but in the 3th season of the TV series. In the film he was 23. Get your fact stright!

The gaps don't bother me. Meg looks don't match her age, makes me wonder how old Queen Hilde is.

Age gaps are just ridiculous to even think about. As long as the person is close to an adult then it's fine!

What about Esmeralda and Phebous? I´ve always had the impression that Phebous was a lot older than both Esmeralda and Quasimodo, considering his remark early in the movie "you leave town for a couple of decades, and they´ve changed everything".

I really love Tiana and Naveen, Ariel and Eric, Rapunzel and Eugene, Aurora and Philip are my fav because they are most romantic couples in disney

I knew a few of the ages. The Beast from Beauty and the Beast is named Prince Adam. I’m a huge Beauty and the Beast fan. Specifically Belle’s fan. So I searched up the Beast’s name and it was Adam. Or I heard it somewhere. I can’t remember. But all I know is that the Beast’s name is Adam.

The biggest age gap (apart from Snow White) was only 10 years, the same age gap between my grandparents...
