Summary: Retired Bolivian Bishop Toribio Ticona, who Pope Francis will raise to the Cardinalate on June 29 is reported to have a concubine (who he either is civilly married to or living more uxorio ("in the manner of spouses")) and illegitimate children. This is reported to have been a "well-known fact" even prior to his retirement. Ticona, 81, is already past voting age for a Conclave, thus this elevation is merely honorary. (Anon commentary: This means that there would be no expectation on Francis to elevate him.)
This South American scandal is in addition to the ongoing pedophilia scandal in Chile where Fr. Juan Barros was promoted to Bishop of Osorno despite accusations that Barros directly witnessed abuse allegedly perpetrated by his friend, Fr. Fernando Karadima. Francis had received a letter from Karadima's alleged victim, and initially publicly dismissed it as "slander" (https://www.nationalreview.com/2018/02/pope-francis-letter-scandal-pope-informed-barros-allegations/)
