There is no suggestion the bishop attended the alleged party in a property adjoining St Mary’s Cathedral, Newcastle, or was aware of it.

It is understood the Pope’s advisers want an “in-depth report” into the circumstances surrounding his resignation.

A source told The Sunday Times: “A number of complaints were made by individuals within the diocese after information came to light about a sex party in the priests’ living quarters.”

A second church source claimed: “The cathedral had become a laughing stock.”

Bishop Byrne stepped told worshippers when he stepped down that the role had become “too great a burden”.

It is believed that he replaced popular Father Dermott Donnelly, older brother of TV star Declan Donnelly, with Father Michael McCoy in 2019.

During lockdown in 2020 — when churches were closed except for funerals — McCoy is said to have invited several worshippers to the party.

McCoy, 57, took his own life in April 2021, days after discovering he was being investigated by police over a historical child sex abuse allegation.
