Age of Shri Rama and Sita Devi
The age difference between Shri Rama and Sita Devi is 7 years.
At the time of their marriage, Shri Rama was 12 years old and Sita Devi was 5 years old.
Then they stayed together at Ayodhya for 12 years.
Shri Rama’s coronation as yuvaraja was planned when he was 25.
Sita Devi was 18 years old at that time.
That means, at the time of starting of the vanavasa, Shri Rama was 25 years old and Sita Devi was 18 years old.
Then they spent 10 years in various ashramas, and 3 years at Panchavati.
Abduction of Sita Devi by Ravana took place in the last year of vanavas.
At that time, Shri Rama was 38 years old and Sita Devi was 31 years old.
