A critic of gay marriage, O’Brien resigned in 2013 after three priests and one former priest complained about incidents of sexual misconduct dating back to the 1980s.
O’Brien initially denied the allegations but later apologised for sexual conduct. He quit as the Archbishop of St. Andrews and Edinburgh in 2013 shortly after Pope Benedict shocked the Catholic world with his own resignation
