Probably when he was a nightclub bouncer!

You do know guys occasionally have normal romantic lives before they go into the priesthood or religious brotherhood? Or for that matter, girls before they go into the sisterhood? Right? The problem’s not with having a past before you take vows, it’s carrying on with it (or starting) afterwards.

Many men who become priests have dated. Nothing new. They found it wasn’t their call.
