Carol Burnett Remembers Daughter Carrie 21 Years After Her Passing: ‘She Was a Force

Carol Burnett, the beloved entertainer and comedy icon, is about to turn 91 this month. As she approaches this important milestone, she has been taking the time to reflect on her extraordinary life and the work she has done. In a recent interview, Burnett opened up about a devastating loss that still weighs heavily on her mind, more than two decades later.

Carol Burnett had three daughters with her ex-husband, producer Joe Hamilton. Their eldest daughter, Carrie Hamilton, was born in 1963. Carrie followed in her famous mother’s footsteps and pursued a career in performing. She had a prominent role on the television series “Fame” and also appeared in various other shows and productions.

Carrie’s path, however, was not without obstacles. She struggled with drug addiction as a young person, which caused her and her family a great deal of pain. Burnett, in a 2020 interview with AARP, discussed her tough-love approach to parenting during difficult times, saying, “When we got her into a third rehab, oh, she hated my guts! You have to love them enough to let them hate you.”
