Juliet is 13, almost fourteen. Romeo's age is not given in the text, and we really have no way of guessing what it might be. He could be in his late teens or in his twenties.

Juliet is 13, a little more than two weeks short of being 14.

I think that Romeo is also young, but a normal marriageable age, say 18, the age at which Shakespeare married.

Juliet is about two weeks away from her fourteenth birthday. As for Romeo, the text doesn't disclose his age, although he is clearly not very old and is probably also in his teens.
