The actress playing the wife is about 38, the actor playing her husband is turning 31 soon. So there is a bit of an age difference there.
Even more interesting, is that the actor playing Finn is 27, the actresses playing Quinn and Rachel are 23.
Just goes to show you how age isn't necessarily a huge factor in casting. If you "fit the part", your age may not matter. Many actors are hired "18+ TPY", which means 18 and older "to play younger", and adult actors (not actors in adult films) can play older, their age, or younger. There are a lot of rules and laws about hiring and paying child actors, from the number of hours per day they can work, to where their paycheck goes (special bank account has to be set up), to having to have parents on set, to providing schooling.
If you remember, most of the actors in the film "Grease" were well into their 20s, and Stockard Channing was around 33 when she shot the film.
