Carol Burnett dresses up to celebrate 93rd birthday at Montecito hotspot

She put on a show.

Carol Burnett dressed to the nines as she stepped out to celebrate her 93rd birthday in Montecito, California, over the weekend.

The acting and comedy legend was spotted with her husband of 25 years, musician Brian Miller, before enjoying a quiet meal at Lucky’s Steakhouse to celebrate her big day Sunday.

Photos of the happy couple showed Burnett dressed up in a white jacket with black trousers, a matching scarf and sunglasses.

Her 85-year-old hubby sported a gray suit and walked arm-in-arm with the variety-sketch show trailblazer as they arrived at the fancy Montecito hotspot.

Burnett moved to Montecito shortly before tying the knot with Miller, her third husband, in 2001.

The opulent Santa Barbara enclave is also home to fellow A-listers like Oprah Winfrey, Ariana Grande, Jennifer Aniston, and Prince Harry and Meghan Markle.

Before her relationship with Miller, Burnett was married to actor Don Saroyan from 1955 to 1962.

She later wed TV producer Joe Hamilton in 1963, and the pair welcomed daughters Carrie, Jody and Erin before divorcing in 1984.

“We have a terrific relationship,” the “Palm Royale” alum said of her current husband during a PBS special in 2007. “And I feel so fortunate at this time of my life to be with him.”

Burnett added, “All of my friends have just totally embraced him. And he loves all of my buddies, so it works out great.”

Back in 2023, in honor of the icon’s milestone 90th birthday, NBC aired the TV special “Carol Burnett: 90 Years of Laughter + Love.”

The celebration included appearances from comedians like Amy Poehler, Jane Lynch and Steve Carell, as well as tributes from fellow legends Julie Andrews and Cher.

“I feel like I’m 11!” Burnett told Page Six ahead of her 90th birthday three years ago.

“I was absolutely gobsmacked by the evening,” she added of the star-studded NBC special in her honor. “It was incredible. It’s not a birthday party. It’s not a roast. It’s a variety show.”

More recently, Burnett reflected on her 70-year legacy and why she wants to forever be remembered for “The Carol Burnett Show” during an exclusive chat with The Post.

“Our show made people happy when they needed it. When they needed a laugh,” she said earlier this year of the hit CBS sketch comedy show that ran for 11 seasons from 1967 to 1978.

“I’m very happy with where I am, and the things that have happened to me before have gotten me to where I am now,” Burnett added at the time. “So why change it?”
