Pope Leo XIV's election came with intriguing hints and surprises, as his brother John Prevost recounted a prophetic conversation prior to the conclave. John recalled discussions about potential papal names, specifically advising against 'Leo'. Despite not believing his brother could become Pope, John was astonished when Leo was announced. Additionally, he shared personal details about Pope Leo XIV's sports preferences, asserting his loyalty to the Chicago White Sox over the Cubs, highlighting a unique family dynamic and illustrating his brother's distinct personality.
He said, 'What should my name be,' John Prevost told the Daily Herald from his suburban Chicago home. "We started rattling off names just to rattle off names."
Not really an idea that it could happen, but there was a chance, an inkling," Prevost said, adding, "But I really was just as surprised as everyone when they said his name."
He was always a Sox fan," Prevost said. "Our mom's family was from north side, so they were Cubs fans."
But he must've done some research to see it's actually the 14th."
