SM: “Back quickly to the Glamour Woman of the Year awards, they’ve also honoured people in the past, such as Naomi Campbell, Priyanka Chopra, Rhianna, Victoria Beckham, and you said that it was beautiful to be there on the night amongst so many amazing women. How does it also feel to be on the list amongst again so many amazing women?”
CB: “It feels really, really incredible. And Jodie [Turner-Smith] actually said in her speech last night, there was a bit of imposter syndrome for her when she got the honour. And that was it a bit for me too. And I think because you get so much in your head and caught up in, you know, just making everything great and really putting your heart into everything, you’re boxed in that world, that you don’t see exactly the impact of what you’re making on the world. So, it is really cool to be recognised in that way and it makes you stop to think for a moment, like, ‘What I am doing is important and special.’”
