Pope Francis had a private meeting with a gay couple last week in Washington.
A former student of his, Yayo Grassi, told the BBC the Pope agreed to meet him to "give him a hug".
Mr Grassi and his boyfriend Iwan were received at the Vatican Embassy where they discussed his business but did not discuss gay issues.
Earlier this week it emerged that the pontiff met Kim Davis, the Kentucky clerk who refused to issue marriage licences to gay couples.
