Following behind Trump were daughter Ivanka, her husband, Jared Kushner, a top White House aide, national security adviser H.R. McMaster and adviser Hope Hicks.

The two men then posed for photograghs and the pope kept a stern face while Trump beamed for the cameras.

The two leaders had a spat last year when Trump was still a Republican contender for the presidency.

Francis called his plan to build a wall on the Mexico border “not Christian,” a comment that Trump dismissed as “disgraceful.”
