Carol Burnett looked absolutely stunning as she celebrated her 93rd birthday.

The comedy legend was seen in the affluent California enclave of Montecito while joined by her husband of 25 years Brian Miller, 85.

The happy couple enjoyed a low key celebration at Lucky's which is a steakhouse known for its upscale space inspired by Hollywood glamour.

No doubt the staff at the American eatery wanted to make her birthday extra special as a worker could be seen bringing in white balloons to decorate the area before the festivities.

The icon sported a white jacket with black trousers and a matching scarf as she walked arm-in-arm with her longtime partner.

Montecito is a celeb-favorite spot to live as it is ritzy, by the beach, and much more private than living in Los Angeles.

Oprah Winfrey, Ellen DeGeneres, Ariana Grande, Katy Perry, Jennifer Aniston, Prince Harry, and Meghan Markle have all called the unincorporated town in Santa Barbara County home. 

The talented star became a pioneering TV star with her sketch comedy series The Carol Burnett Show in the 1960s and 1970s and has remained a showbiz mainstay ever since. 

Carol has enjoyed a long and illustrious career, in which her most celebrated job was her 11 years as the star of the sketch program The Carol Burnett Show.

However, when she first began to make her bones in the entertainment industry, television was not initially receptive to her talents.

'It was some local television show in New York and I got up and I belted out a song and the emcee that I was auditioning for said: "You're too loud for television,"' Carol told People in 2023 ahead of her 90th birthday. 'I disagreed.'

Eventually she found her way to fame onstage, landing her star-making role in the 1959 Broadway musical Once Upon A Mattress.

Based on The Princess And The Pea, the show featured music by Mary Rodgers - daughter of The Sound Of Music composer Richard Rodgers - and catapulted Carol to prominence in show business.

From her beloved run on The Carol Burnett Show to her scene-stealing turns in such movies as Annie (1982), she established herself as a superstar and then a national treasure.

Burnett's most recent role was on the Apple TV+ dramedy Palm Royale alongside a star-packed including Kristin Wiig, Ricky Martin, Laura Dern, Allison Janney and Kaia Gerber 

Her career also gave her a longtime personal and professional bond with Julie Andrews, including a 1962 Carnegie Hall concert that was taped for television. 

She has earned several awards and accolades including: seven Golden Globe Awards, a Grammy Award, seven Primetime Emmy Awards, twelve People's Choice Awards, two Peabody Awards and a Tony Award.

Burnett has had many iconic film roles including: Pete 'n' Tillie (1972), The Front Page (1974), A Wedding (1978), The Four Seasons (1981), Noises Off (1992), and Horton Hears a Who! (2008).

She has also had other iconic television roles besides The Carol Burnett Show including Mad About You (1996 - 1999, then reprising the role for one episode in 2019), Better Call Saul (2022), and Hacks (2025). 

Burnett's most recent role was on the Apple TV+ dramedy Palm Royale alongside a star-packed cast including Kristin Wiig, Ricky Martin, Laura Dern, Allison Janney and Kaia Gerber.
