Catholic Archbishop’s wife has pregnancy test

The South Korean woman whose marriage to a Zambian archbishop shook the Vatican said she has taken a pregnancy test.

Maria Sung, 43, who married Archbishop Emmanuel Milingo, 71, in a Moonie mass wedding in May, expects the results from a Rome hospital today.

She announced the test three days after the Vatican released what it said was a letter from Milingo to the pope saying he was leaving her and returning to the Roman Catholic Church.

She is also reportedly on a hunger strike aimed at forcing Milingo to meet with her.

The Zambian archbishop had said celibacy is poisoning the priesthood and that God’s blessings were meant to be given through the family.

But his letter to Pope John Paul said he was recommitting his life ‘‘in the Catholic church with all my heart.’’

Sung says she hasn’t heard from her husband since August 8, the day after he met the pope, and says she fears the Vatican is holding him as a prisoner against his will

The Vatican has not disclosed Milingo’s whereabouts, saying only that he is on a spiritual retreat and that he should be left alone to pray.
