The Vatican has launched an inquiry after Pope Francis' Instagram account liked a photo of a Brazilian bikini model wearing clothes resembling a school uniform.
The "like" was reported by news outlets this month and was "unliked" just a day later according to the Catholic News Agency (CAN).
It reports that the Pope's various social media channels are managed by a communications team of employees - and that an internal inquiry is under way to determine how the incident occurred.
CNA asked the Holy See Press Office for comment - but it has reportedly declined to comment.
The model Natalia Garibotto, who has 2.4 million Instagram followers, is reported to have joked "at least I'm going to heaven".
She also light-heartedly tweeted: "Brb (be right back) on my way to the Vatican."
