In a post on X (ex Twitter), Margo Martin, described as Trump’s “assistente speciale e consigliera per la comunicazione,” called the meeting “fantastico” and shared a photo of Trump, Vance, and the Prevosts in the Oval Office.

Trump told reporters at Capitol Hill that he was looking forward to meeting Louis Prevost, saying, “Mi piace il papa e mi piace suo fratello.”

He also said, “Voglio stringergli la mano.

Voglio…,” as he described the planned greeting with Prevost.

Sky TG24 said Pope Leo XIV spent the day at Castel Gandolfo with brothers John and Louis Prevost, with John appearing in Piazza San Pietro for a mass for canonizations.

In the Pope’s greeting to the faithful, Sky TG24 quoted him responding to those asking him to pray for peace: “Prego sempre per la pace.”

Sky TG24 also said that at the end of the day, the pontiff left Villa Barberini to return to Vatican and greeted some faithful waiting outside.

The same Sky TG24 report described a papamobile ride before the concluding celebration of the “Giubileo dei giovani,” with “oltre un milione” of attendees throwing flags and plush toys.

In an interview reported by The Daily Beast, John Prevost discussed navigating political disagreements with his older brother Louis, who is described as a Trump supporter.

John told Erin Burnett that they keep disagreements contained, saying, “We keep politics to a limit,” and added, “nothing he may say is gonna change my opinion, and nothing I may say is gonna change his opinion.”

The Daily Beast also quoted Trump’s earlier remarks about Louis, including “I like the pope, and I like the pope’s brother,” as Trump described looking forward to bringing Louis to the White House.

In la Repubblica, Louis Prevost was described as saying in an interview on “Piers Morgan Uncensored” that he would likely “abbasserà i toni” so as not to create problems for his brother as pope.
