In her post, Benoist also noted what she claimed was an "incredible impact" the show has had on young girls.
"To say it has been an honor portraying this iconic character would be a massive understatement. Seeing the incredible impact the show has had on young girls around the world has always left me humbled and speechless," the 31-year-old actress wrote.
Benoist added: "She's had that impact on me, too. She's taught me strength I didn't know I had, to find hope in the darkest of places, and that we are stronger when we're united. What she stands for pushes all of us to be better. She has changed my life for the better, and I'm forever grateful."
Production on the final season is set to begin later this month, and season six will have 20 episodes, reports variety.com.
