“A towering example of grace and humility, it was so inspiring to hear about the innovative projects that are changing young lives and improving communities,” the former soccer star wrote in the caption. 

“Thank you Mr President it was a privilege to hear you speak with such passion and conviction.”

Echoing the same sentiments, Victoria expressed gratitude to Obama for his efforts to bring about meaningful change globally.
