In this April 12, 2013, Clelia Luro holds a portrait of her late husband Jeronimo Podesta, a former bishop of Avellaneda, at her home in Buenos Aires, Argentina. Luro, whose romance with Podesta and eventual marriage became a major scandal in the 1960s, is such a close friend with Pope Francis that he called her every Sunday when he was Argentina's leading cardinal.
