At 14 she became pregnant and gave birth at the age of 15. This is only speculations as no-one knows for sure.

Peace!
The Bible is silent about her age. People married early in those days. She must have been 16 when she was betrothed to Joseph. So I would say she must have been 17 when she gave birth to Jesus.

Mary "brithed" Jesus allegedly as a
mere virgin child.
Apparently, given recent pedophile
revelations, in all our media, the relishing of the young by religious leaders has not changed in the past 2000 years.

I don't think we can know for sure, but some think she was 15 or 16. That was a culturally acceptable age to have children at that time. Woman tended to be married off at very young ages.

As girls were usually betrothed as soon as they were of child bearing age-she was probably about 13-14 when she became betrothed, and 14-15 when Jesus was born.
