Sorry, I wrote too quickly here--what I meant is that I don't agree there is any unique "actual" truth about the CORRELATION between their ages, i.e. whether or not they reach the same age simultaneously (of course there is still a unique truth about each one's age at any specific event on his worldline). They do reach the same age simultaneously in their comoving inertial frame, but this frame's judgments can't be considered any more "valid" than a different inertial frame.
