The leader of the Roman Catholic Church, Pope Francis, is in the news again and this time, it’s not for slapping a pilgrim.

Pope Francis, just a week after he was filmed slapping the hands of a woman who grabbed his hands has shown the world how loving he can also be.

The pontiff kissed a nun on the cheek, after jokingly asking her if she won’t bite him, seemingly in reference to the incident where his hand was grabbed by a supposed fan last week.

The pope responded with a joke, replying: “You bite!” Calm yourself I’ll give you a kiss’

Francis then said, “Promise you won’t bite?”

The nun nodded affirmatively and the pope then kissed her on the cheek.
