7:10Now PlayingJust one day before his death, Pope Francis made his final public appearance on Easter Sunday, April 20, 2025, delivering the traditional Urbi et Orbi blessing from the balcony of St. Peter’s Basilica.
The 88-year-old pontiff, known for his humility and progressive reforms, passed away Monday morning after battling a severe case of double pneumonia. His final moments in the public eye were marked by grace and symbolism, as he addressed the faithful in St. Peter’s Square for what would be the last time.
The Vatican also confirmed that Pope Francis met privately that morning with U.S. Vice President JD Vance, a Catholic and known critic of some of the pope’s views on immigration and social policy.
