Oprah’s priest, ‘Father Cutie,’ in trouble

Posted by: Gary Stern - Posted in Father Alberto Cutié, Miami Herald, Oprah on May 07, 2009

Have you heard of Father Alberto Cutié, the extremely popular, personable and handsome Miami priest who is a favorite of Oprah?

I’ve seen the guy on TV a few times and have heard a few comments over the years about women swooning over “Father Cutie.”

Well, now, Father Cutie has apparently been photographed smooching with a woman on the beach. He’s been removed from his Miami Beach parish. More than 60 supporters rallied today in his defense.

The Miami Herald has the whole story HERE.

Cutié released a statement saying: “Before God—full of love and mercy—I ask for the forgiveness of those who may be hurt or saddened by my actions.”

Also: “The commitment that I made to serve God will remain intact.”
