Beatrice Borromeo has expressed her thanks for Maria Grazia Chiuri. The day Maria announced that she would be stepping down as Dior's creative director after nine years, Princess Caroline's daughter-in-law took to Instagram to pen a message to the designer.
"@mariagraziachiuri Thank you for the wonders you’ve created, for supporting artists and artisans, for infusing your works of books, film and culture, for the powerful messages you’ve spread in support of women - always," Beatrice wrote. "Thank you for being with me through the most important moments of my life, from my wedding to my pregnancies to my projects launch. Thank you for the trips around the world and the many memories I will cherish forever. I’m honored to have been part of your Dior journey and I can’t wait to admire what you’ll do ❤️."
Maria reacted to Beatrice's post, commenting with a simple "❤️" emoji.
