Michael V. honors Pope Francis with old sketch

Michael V. has joined the many people keeping Pope Francis in their thoughts as he battles double pneumonia.

On Instagram, the Kapuso Comedy Genius shared his old sketch of the pope when he visited the Philippines in 2015.

Fans and fellow celebrities such as Zsazsa Padilla praised him for his talent, along with some users asking prayers for the Pope.

This isn't the first time Bitoy showed his artistic side. Previously, the multi-talented artist shared a sketch of Mike Enriquez when the veteran broadcast journalist died in September 2023.

Pope Francis is currently in the hospital after experiencing difficulty breathing due to bronchitis. Doctors later diagnosed that he has double pneumonia.
