No one in the Holy See “liked” a racy photograph while logged in to Pope Francis’ Instagram account, the Vatican said. For this reason, they requested that Instagram open an investigation into how or why such a “like” appears to have happened.
“We can rule out that the ‘like’ comes from the Holy See, [which is why we have] turned to Instagram for explanations,” the Holy See Press Office said. (LOOK: This mom prays the rosary on Instagram every day)
On November 13, Pope Francis’ verified, official Instagram account has been reported to have liked a racy photo of model and streamer Natalia Garibotto. In the picture, Garibotto is wearing a lingerie outfit that resembles a school uniform. Her mostly-uncovered posterior is visible in the picture.
The controversial “like” on the photo has since been removed, but the Holy See’s Press Office is yet to make a comment on what could have happened.
