Sneaky Girl Meets Pope, Tries To Steal His Hat. Video Is Viral

New Delhi: Kids are carefree beings. They just tug, grab and throw anything within their reach, not worrying about the consequences. So, when 3-year-old Estella met the Pope in Rome, she really didn't care that he was the head of the Roman Catholic Church and did something that made even the Pontiff chuckle. As Pope Francis leaned in to plant a kiss, she sneakily reached out for his cap trying to steal it. "Right before she went up she was a little nervous. Then she stole his hat. It was hilarious, everyone was laughing including the Pope", her godfather Mountain Butorac told CNN.

In 2015, a little baby caught Pope's attention during his visit to America. Dressed in full Papal attire, the infant named Quinn Madden had the Pope in splits when he saw him in the crowd.
