How old Sunset Shimmer is? · 9:48am Feb 1st, 2019
So... My Little Pony: 20/20 established that M6 around 25-27 years old. That mesh pretty nicely with Big Jim twit about Spike age (16-22 in "pony years") and with this whole "birthversary" in "Pinkie Pride". 20/20 happens after the movie (Applejack said that she been in Seaquestria) and movie placed between season seven finale and season eight premiere.
Hard to say how much time has passed between season one and season seven but I doubt that more than three years. So that means that at the start of season one Twilight been a student under Celestia for... seventeen years (or so)? That lots of time, really... Even if we assume that Celestia takes Twilight as her student immediately after Sunset run away, it means that Sunset age is 17+X years old. Question is how big this "X" is?
