That wasn't the way that age worked then. Even with all the hazards of life then, the main factor that produced the low life expectancy of pre-modern eras was high child mortality.

But in regards to the originals, it would be more likely a case of how royal/noble marriages worked these days. If you research medieval royal generalogies, you'll find a lot of examples of girls being married off usually in the 13-17 range, and even the age difference in Cosmas' example wouldn't be too unusual in these circles back then.
