Vanna White Updates Fans on Pat Sajak’s Life After ‘Wheel of Fortune’

LOS ANGELES, Calif. — Nearly a year after Pat Sajak retired from ‘Wheel of Fortune,’ his longtime co-host Vanna White shared an update on his life during a recent podcast appearance. Many fans continue to miss Sajak, who hosted the game show for nearly four decades, but have also embraced new host Ryan Seacrest.

Vanna White provided reassurances about Sajak’s well-being during the podcast on April 2. ‘I talk to Pat all the time. He’s doing great. He’s healthy, he’s happy. I just had dinner with him about a month ago. So I just want to let everyone out here know he’s doing good,’ she said.

Despite the changes following Sajak’s retirement, White also faced uncertainty about her future on the show. Reflecting on her decision to stay, she disclosed, ‘Am I going to stay? Do I go out with [Sajak] after 41 years together? It was going to be hard to work with somebody else, you know, after being so familiar with [Sajak].’

White continued, ‘It was just very hard for me to make that decision because I’m happy with my job. I still love my job. I decided to obviously stay on and I’m glad I did. There’s always contracts. There’s always controversy and all that stuff. But everything’s fine. I’m happy. We’re here.’

In an exciting development for fans, ABC announced that Sajak and White would reunite for ‘Pat’s Final Spin’ on ‘Celebrity Wheel of Fortune‘ at the end of April. Fans are eagerly anticipating this revival, with one fan expressing, ‘My mom and I will be watching this next month for Pat Sajak’s final spin on Celebrity Wheel of Fortune.’
