The Pope's condition is said to be improving, but there's uncertainty over an upcoming royal visit.
The 88-year-old has been in hospital for more than a month with double pneumonia, but the Vatican is now saying he's making slight improvements.
King Charles and Queen Camilla are due to visit for the jubilee celebrations of the Catholic Church, early next month.
But Italy Correspondent Jo McKenna told Ryan Bridge it's uncertain whether the Pope will be able to meet the royals.
She says the Vatican is refusing to confirm the meeting, or whether he will be out of hospital by then.
