Former White House press secretary Sean Spicer has finally got to meet the Pope.
The ex-press secretary was left off a list of White House officials to meet the Pope during President Trump's visit in May.
The omission was seen by many as a slight by Mr Trump against the embattled aide.
A Vatican spokesman confirmed Mr Spicer attended an audience with the Pope on Sunday as part of an annual meeting of the International Catholic Legislators' Network.
Vatican Radio posted photographs of the event on Facebook.
One shows Mr Spicer - who is Roman Catholic - in the front row, using his phone to take photos of Pope Francis.
after a disagreement over the appointment of Anthony Scaramucci as communications director - who was then sacked by Mr Trump after 10 days.
