"I'm deeply inspired by the entire @cartier team for their leadership and unwavering commitment to championing this global force for good for the past 19 years," she continued. "And to the visionary women leading with courage and purpose - thank you for boldly building the world you want to see."

"There isn't a day that goes by where I don't think I'm the luckiest man in the world. So it's great."
