• Carol’s husband has been a significant source of support through tragedies and challenges in her life.

Carol Burnett, star of the popular comedy series “The Carol Burnett Show,” made a rare red-carpet appearance at the age of 89. To celebrate her upcoming 90th birthday, Burnett was honored with the premiere of her new comedy special. The special was titled “Carol Burnett: 90 Years Of Laughter + Love.”

Numerous other celebrities joined the comedian. They all gathered to make the celebration of Burnett’s influence on comedy a special occasion. The event was held at Avalon Hollywood and featured famous faces such as Sofia Vergara, Cher, Julie Andrews, Billy Porter, and others. The special is set to air on April 26 on NBC.

Burnett looked happy and healthy in a pink jacket, black pants, black shoes, a matching top, and her head of beautiful ginger hair. Fans responded to the image of Burnett, saying she looked terrific. Many were elated to see the comedy pioneer doing well and living out her days with excellent health.

One fan reposted the image of Burnett on the red carpet, saying she looked “absolutely amazing.” Others reciprocated the sentiment, writing, “Happy birthday Carol. You look absolutely wonderful.” Many fans joked that they wanted to know who was helping her stay so youthful.

Over the years, Burnett has made a name for herself with her work. Besides being a pioneer in her professional life, however, she also wanted to build a happy family. Sadly, she had trouble finding the right partner. Over the years, Burnett was married to three different men, hoping to find a lasting relationship.

Burnett first married Don Saroyan in 1955, but the two went their separate ways in 1962. After Saroyan, Burnett tied the knot with Joe Hamilton in 1963. Hamilton and Burnett had three children together before divorcing in 1984. Finally, the actress met Brian Miller, and the two settled down in 2001. Burnett spoke about her husband:

“He’s funny and not easily intimidated. As we get older, the gap between our ages narrows. If you were 40 and married a 20-year-old, I don’t think you could communicate like [we do].”

Although there’s a 23-year age gap between them, they couldn’t be happier. Burnett joked, “Look at our friend Clint Eastwood. I say, if it’s good enough for the fellows, it’s good enough for the girls.” Burnett spoke about her husband, gushing that his support was essential after she went through a series of personal tragedies.

Miller stood behind his beloved wife as she went through great tragedy. In 2002, the comedian persisted through one of the most challenging periods of her life after her daughter, Carrie Hamilton, succumbed to lung cancer at the age of 38. Naturally, Miller was heartbroken after her daughter’s death.

Luckily, Miller was around to comfort her. He offered her great support when she needed it most, which helped her overcome her grief. Later, Miller once again provided the backup Burnett needed when she filed for legal guardianship of her grandson, Dylan Hamilton West.

Dylan’s mother, Erin Hamilton, had struggled with substance abuse problems throughout her life. Since her son’s birth, Hamilton has attended rehabilitation centers on and off and has been institutionalized a total of eight times. Despite the numerous times Erin has gone to rehab, her mom thought it prudent to take responsibility for Hamilton West.

Burnett noted that Dylan’s living environment with his mother was “unstable,” and she admitted that his conditions weren’t conducive to a stable upbringing. So, in 2019, Burnett and Miller decided to file for guardianship to give the little boy a better home until his mother shook her addiction for good.

Just like Jennifer Aniston‘s husband supported her, Miller sticks by Burnett’s side. She opened up about her daughter’s death, saying the pain hasn’t faded after all these years. She shared, “I think of her every day. She never leaves me…I just feel her.”
