She'd have to have been prevented from aging somehow. If Alice is his daughter, then perhaps time in the new Wonderland moves slower. Well actually it is speculation that time moves faster. Looking back at something I realized Henry didn't arrive into the magical forest  until he was about his current age. Prior to that he was in other realms. The Events in the Magical forest has only take place over a couple of weeks, maybe even days given how fast things esclated last epiosde.

Also from the Promo for either this episode or episode 8 for next week we see Henry and Jacinda realm jumping. So maybe that is why they don't age. When the season is over we would have all the information to make a conclusion on the timeline. Time has to move faster in NEF. Henry leaves in in (probably August) 2017 and the current events are in (October+) 2017. Emma and Regina have remarks about how he's grown up, etc. Unless Henry trael across multiple realms and one of those realm moved quickly, while NEF did not. But we'd have to wait and see.

We don't know how much faster it runs, but it definitely runs faster than LWM. I'm going to make a guess that Henry might be 32. Maybe the realms where time moves faster caused him to age twice as fast which is how 16-year-old Henry might be twice his age.
