Pope Leo’s personal trainer, Valerio Masella, revealed he was stunned to discover his client of nearly two years was a cardinal in an interview.

Masella told Italian newspaper Il Messaggero that he had absolutely no idea the man he trained would become the next pontiff.

“Here in the gym, no one knew that Robert, now Leo XIV, was a cardinal, least of all me who trained him,” the 26-year-old said. Masella said Pope Leo, then Cardinal Robert Prevost, trained regularly at a gym in Rome, located near the Vatican, and consistently worked out multiple times a week, according to Il Messaggero. The location is called the Omega gym, ABC New reported.

“He came in informal clothes,” Masella said.
