Dec 5, 2016 at 20:16 comment added w00t It's probably a bit late now, and he might not be ready for it in the first place, but perhaps some reading material on how to recognize "psychological warfare" might be good for your son. If she really is manipulative, perhaps that will help him, over time, to realize it.

Dec 1, 2016 at 23:40 comment added Ida The unhealthyness has nothing to do with their age. It is unhealthy, full stop. Teenage relationships (even if the teens have sex) can be healthy. But this isn't. If they were in their 20s it wouldn't sound healthy either. Try to think of it not being a problem with their age, but more specific things, and then give advice. He is too old for you to forbid him things without it becoming tantalizing.
Dec 1, 2016 at 22:06 comment added WRX This is only my opinion. I think you have to tell him that she is manipulating him and that as he is 16, you are saying 'no' to the relationship. You get to take a hard line. Give him a chance to act appropriately, but if he can't stand on his own, you have to do it for him. Be careful because he may use it as an excuse to lie to you. My heart goes out to you.
