    “The Holy See has made it clear that we do not agree with the formalized blessing of couples, in this case, homosexual couples, as you asked, or couples in irregular situations, beyond what was specifically, if you will, allowed for by Pope Francis in saying all people receive blessings,” he said
    

    Or, without all the fluff

    “The Holy See has made it clear that we do not agree with the formalized blessing of couples ... beyond what was specifically ... allowed for by Pope Francis in saying all people receive blessings,” he said
    

    So if Francis said it was ok; it’s fine. But it seems like Francis said it wasn’t fine.

    At the same time though, I’ve started to loose lose trust in media outlets and idk how reputable NewsWeek

      Francis said you can bless everyone all at once, including gay people, at the end of the sermon. Some want to make it a stand alone blessing like those given at weddings. Leo is saying you cannot do that, but can still bless everyone.
