The passing of Pope Francis on Easter Monday has left many stunned, and numerous well-known figures from Hollywood have expressed emotional tributes online for the deceased Pope. Earlier today, Cardinal Kevin Farrell announced the news of Pope Francis’ death in a statement, disclosing that he expired at 7:30 AM local time.

Adjoa Andoh posted on Instagram about the deceased Pope Francis, expressing that he was kind and supportive towards those who were oppressed within the boundaries of his religion. She also expressed her sadness over his passing.

Currently, Sarah Ferguson expressed that there is no more fitting illustration of “complete humility, kindness, and compassion” than Pope Francis. She acknowledged him for guiding others not only through his spoken words but also by consistently serving humanity selflessly.

Eva Longoria posted a picture with the Pope, expressing gratitude for his support of people similar to herself and for standing up for the underprivileged. She noted that his empathy, gentleness, and modesty would forever be etched in memory.

Antonio Banderas too posted a picture alongside him, expressing, “Pope Francis passed away – a leader of the Catholic Church who demonstrated compassion, affection, and grace towards those in need.

Russell Crowe conveyed his sorrow by saying that although it could be a lovely day in Rome, it was a dismal day for those who have faith.

Earlier today, Whoopi Goldberg expressed gratitude on her Instagram for a message from Pope Francis, emphasizing that the love of Christ extends not just to believers but also to those who do not believe.

Based on statements from physicians who attended to him earlier this year, it is believed that he probably passed away due to a stroke. In February, he was admitted to Rome’s Gemelli Hospital because of a respiratory infection in the tract, which progressed into double pneumonia. After five weeks, he was released and returned home to the Vatican for recuperation.

Over the course of his 12-year papacy, Pope Francis has been a vocal champion for climate change awareness, ecological preservation, global solidarity, and social equality. He frequently draws attention to the struggles of the underprivileged and those on society’s fringes. He has used his platform to address many contemporary world issues and inspire people to coexist peacefully with one another and the environment.
