Pope Leo XIV shared news regarding his health during the Angelus prayer on October 11, 2026. Vatican News noted that his announcement recalls previous instances where popes have shared their physical fragility with the faithful.

Historical examples of such transparency include Pope Paul VI expressing thanks before undergoing surgery in 1967 and Pope Francis speaking from Gemelli Hospital in 2021. These six recorded episodes reflect different circumstances connected by prayer and a shared bond with those who suffer.
