King Charles And Pope Leo XIV Pray Together In A 500 Year First | 10 News
King Charles and Pope Leo XIV have made history by becoming the first British monarch and pontiff to pray together in 500 years, during a service at the Sistine Chapel. The ceremony, featuring choirs from both churches, was hailed as a powerful symbol of unity between Anglicans and Catholics. King Charles, accompanied by Queen Camilla, exchanged gifts with the pope before the service and later received the honorary title of Royal Confrater. The visit coincides with the Vatican’s 2025 Jubilee, marking a year of forgiveness and renewal. The moment follows centuries of division since Henry VIII’s 16th-century break from the Catholic Church.
