About 48. Odysseus was one of the suitors of Helen in about 1201 BC. He was allowed to marry Penelope at that time as a result of his assistance in providing a husband for Helen in a safe way. Penelope may have been 13 at that time as this was the normal marriage for women. So her birth might have been about 1214 BC. Helen did not leave with Paris until about 1195 BC. The Trojan war did not start until about 1186 BC. So Penelope was about 28 at the start of the Trojan War. The war lasted ten years and Odysseus did not return for ten years after that. So when Odysseus returned to Ithaca in about 1166 BC, Penelope was about 48 years old.
In the "Odyssey," Helen was the wife of Menelaus, not Odysseus. Odysseus was married to Penelope, who remained faithful to him during his long journey back from the Trojan War.
