Ariel already had reunited with Eric a long time ago (sometime after their return in EF) and have been living somewhere. I think we can assume they got married. Hook referred to Eric, as Ariel's husband vs. fiance or boyfriend. The fact that Ariel would be able to pay the ransom, also indicates that she was a princess. She is a mermaid.... the only way for her to tap into the kingdom's funds, was if she and Eric were married.
