“At 91 years old, she remains incredible. This actress stays active and refuses to back down.”

Carol Burnett, a legendary American actress and comedian, is widely recognized for her trailblazing comedy-variety series, The Carol Burnett Show, which aired from 1967 to 1978.

Now at the age of 91, Burnett continues to enchant viewers through her role in the Apple TV+ series Palm Royale, a drama set in Palm Beach, Florida, in 1969. Born on April 26, 1933, in San Antonio, Texas, Burnett was raised by her grandmother following her parents’ separation.

In the 1940s, her family relocated to Hollywood, where Burnett pursued her studies in theatre at the University of Southern California. She gained fame in 1957 on The Ed Sullivan Show with a comedic number that humorously captured young women’s infatuation with heartthrob Elvis Presley, catapulting her to stardom.

Decades of Unforgettable Performances
In addition to her iconic television series, Burnett has given outstanding performances in films, musicals, and Broadway productions.

Her Broadway repertoire includes Love Letters (2014), Hollywood Arms (2002), Putting It Together (1999), Moon Over Buffalo (1995), Fade Out – Fade In (1964), and Once Upon a Mattress (1959). On the big screen, she appeared in films like Pete ‘n’ Tillie (1972), The Front Page (1974), and The Four Seasons (1981), among many others, each role highlighting her remarkable talent and versatility.

Carol Burnett’s lasting charm stems from her capacity to adapt and resonate with audiences through the years. From her beginnings on The Ed Sullivan Show to her recent performance in Palm Royale, Burnett remains a cherished icon in the entertainment industry, affirming that her legendary status is truly warranted.

98-year-old Kentucky woman with over 230 great-great-grandchildren meets her great-great-great-grandchild for the first time in amazing photo with 6 generations in it

An incredibly heartwarming photo showing six generations of women from the same family has gone viral recently as it captured the attention of a large number of people.

At the top end of the age scale is 99-year-old MaeDell Taylor Hawkins who is holding her seven-month-old great-great-great-granddaughter Zhavia Whitaker in her arms while the rest of the women, including MaeDell’s daughter, Frances Snow, 77, granddaughter Gracie Snow Howell, great-granddaughter Jacqueline Ledford, 29, and great-great-granddaughter Jaisline Wilson, 19, are posing behind them. Today, MaeDell has more than 620 grandchildren from her own daughters and their children’s children.

“I know it’s rare for six generations … it’s even rarer for all of them to be the same gender,” MaeDell’s granddaughter Howell, 58, told Good Morning America. “We’re all girls — girl power, as well.”

When they snapped the photo and shared it on the social media, none of them knew it would attract that much attention.

“We just kind of planned a day, and we just all met and grandma knew we were coming,” Howell, who now lives in Myrtle Beach, South Carolina, said.

MaeDell got married back in 1940 when she was just 16 years old. Her husband was 50-year-old rail worker Bill Taylor who at the time had 10 children and needed someone to take care of them while he was at work. MaeDell took the role of a mother and went on to have 13 children on her own.

The family lived a very simple life as they lacked electricity, running water, and a stove, among the rest.

Getting married young was normal back in the day. Speaking of it, Howell said, “Now we don’t. We have children later in our life, so families are not that big. Having six generations is very, very rare to start with.”

The Kentucky matriarch now boasts a whopping 623 descendants, according to a family chart shared by her daughter-in-law, Janice Taylor. They include 106 grandchildren, 222 great-grandchildren, 234 great-great-grandchildren and 37 great-great-great-grandchildren.

“If everything goes well, the baby’s doing well, Grandma’s doing well – we’re all going to meet back in June and get another picture,” the family shared.
