There seems to be a minor bug with healing Zombie Villagers. Once fed the golden apple transformation into a discounted villager last forever unless you save & exit and re open the world again, once back into the world the zombie villagers are healed back into normal villagers.

Oh bedrock they only take about 1-2 minutes. I waited for 20 minutes. The reason how I know it only takes about 2 minutes is because if I wait 2 minutes leave the game and return they automatically are already villagers and not zombies this tells me that they are stuck until you leave and go back in. My partner experienced the same thing on his console when playing Bedrock.
The fact that zombie villagers heal instantly if you reload the game is a tracked as a bug at MCPE-29986.
The normal timer for healing a zombie villager can only run while the zombie villager is within your simulation distance. If you leave the area the timer cannot tick. Does this explain your issue?
Well I never leave the area where the healing villagers are as for my computer I need to keep simulation distance as around 4 as it will cause lag due to my computer having low ram so if I leave they will despawn. However it seems to be fixed now as I was observing my villagers while healing and it took them about 1-2 minutes before they changed to normal villagers without me having to reload the game. Thank you for the help.
Zombie villagers take 3 to 5 minutes to convert into a normal villager. How long did you wait?
