The guy and the pastors daughter started to "sense some sparks between them" while he was going through the divorce process. The divorce was finalized. They began seeing each other more. They got engaged. The pastor offered his approval in front of the whole church.

The article doesn't state that they were engaged at the time of the statement. He said at that point that they were "going to be romantically involved." e.g., dating?
My parents met and dated for only a couple of months before they married. Lots of couples have quick romances. Not my cup of tea, but it does happen.
