How old is Gollum?
Through the influence of the Ring, Gollum’s life was extended far beyond that of other members of his clan. An average hobbit lifespan is over 100 years, but a span of 556 years separates Gollum’s finding of the Ring and its destruction, by which time he was almost 600 years old. It’s possible that Gollum’s prolonged search for the ring allowed it to maintain a significant power over him, suspending his aging process. In contrast, Bilbo’s exposure to the ring’s influence waned after he willingly (mostly) relinquished it, allowing his aging to resume more noticeably.
