That bit of information about them being engaged was just kind of sprinkled into the middle of the article as if it was of no significance.

Yeah, it completely changes the dynamic of the situation. I can't imagine many other people are really going through a salary negotiation with their fiance as the other party.
I usually let someone else handle financial negotiations if I referred someone into a company (even if I'd otherwise be the one doing that), unless it's a totally mechanical calculation. I'm not sure how I would do that with a fiancee.
The whole post/situation was fucking bizarre.
