A Catholic Priest identified as Reverend Father Riccardo Ceccobelli, 42, has revealed that he has fallen in love, and won’t be able to stay true to the oath of Celibacy required by the church.

A statement published published on Tuesday, April 13, by the diocese reads ;

“I cannot not continue to be coherent, transparent and correct with regards to her (the Church), as I have always been so far.”

“My heart is in love although I have never had the opportunity to transgress the promises I made.” 

“I want to try to live this love without repressing it, without pushing it away.”
