I mean if we assume that when Belle started to go grey (assuming her 40/50s) he was 18 since he was going off to the EF version of university (which makes sense timeline wise if we assume she was in her late 20s or early 30s when he was born) and when she died she was like 80 he'd be like 40 at least, yet he was still played by  29 year old Giles Matthey. Gideon was in another realm, going to school.

In other words, Gideon was born in SB (slow).

Gideon was raised in other worlds (fast)

18-yr old Gideon was accepted to Elphame Academy in another world (faster).

Belle and Rumple lived at EoR (even faster).

The time flow differed, so Gideon felt as no time has passed, though Belle went from 50/60s to 80s without much time for him. Ah that makes sense.

And now I am sad thinking about all the time he missed with Belle
