I'm still really confused about the timeline. Since I still don't understand how Ella is around Henry's age when she was born many years before the curse, Jack could very well be the same age. I think you are conflating a few things.

1. Given NFTL has portals that pop up on regularly scheduled intervals, Zelena probably visted due to a crazy witchy pest.

2. Zelena wouldn’t bring up this. Why would she? She ran into some kids and a witch decade ago...and what of it? It’s not like she recognized Hansel. Zelena did appear aware of Gothel and her world, so they at least gave hint to it in 11.

3. Timeline is pretty easy. It appears that Oz, FTL, LWM, and NFTL progress time at the same rate. Wish Realm is the anomaly.

So, Ella was born around the time of the curse and grew up post the time freeze. All realms were frozen durin the 28 years. I think we all know this.

Hansel was probably ten and this flashback takes place right before the curse and the time freeze.
