Pope Francis, who was the Bishop of Rome and head of the Catholic Church, became pope in 2013 after his predecessor, Benedict XVI, resigned.

The late Pope had battled severe health issues for the early months of 2025. He spent five weeks in admission at the Gemelli Hospital in Rome with double pneumonia after he entered the medical facility on February 14, 2025, due to bronchitis.

On 23 February, it was announced that Pope Francis had developed early-stage kidney failure, but his condition was still stable. He was subsequently discharged from the hospital on March 3, 2025, and was expected to spend at least two months recuperating from his health struggles at his home in Domus Sanctae Marthae in the Vatican City before his untimely passing.
