Not So Supportive Mother
Not everyone is lucky enough to have their parents’ full support in life, and Burnett’s other didn’t approve of her daughter’s career path. She wanted Carol to become a writer as it was a safer choice. Burnett said in an interview that anytime she brought up acting her mother would always discourage her.
Not Conforming To Expectations
Burnett admitted that she is not your typical girl next door, but that suits her fine. She isn’t willing to compromise on what she feels comfortable doing and doesn’t take her dieting too seriously. The actress said that while she doesn’t always eat a lot, she makes sure the food she does eat is indulgent.
