Dreams can come true.
Former White House press secretary Sean Spicer met Pope Francis earlier this week.
Spicer attended the annual meeting of the International Catholic Legislators Network at the Vatican. Photos of the meeting show the pope addressing the group and Spicer standing in the front row, snapping images on his phone.
The Vatican confirmed to the Associated Press that Spicer had an audience with the pope on Sunday.
It's a moment Spicer, a devout Catholic, has long waited for. Back in May, the then-presidential spokesman official was left off of a list of administration officials who got to meet the pope.
White House officials said at the time that this was due to number constraints from the Vatican.
"Wow. That's all he wanted," one source told CNN when hearing of the May snub.
