Vanna White Teases Pat Sajak’s Upcoming Final ‘Wheel of Fortune’ Appearance (Exclusive)
Pat Sajak’s back, Wheel of Fortune fans! But that doesn’t mean he’s no longer retired from the celebrated game show, as Vanna White told Parade in an exclusive interview.

Viewers will see Sajak as host again for Celebrity Wheel of Fortune season 5 in episodes previously taped. The new edition premieres on Wednesday, April 30 at 8 p.m. ET on ABC and streaming on Hulu.
White told Parade while promoting the celebrity shows on Tuesday at Hulu’s Get Real House event in Beverly Hills, “It’s exciting, awesome. We filmed it a while back. It’s always great working with Pat after 41 years.”
Sajak, 78, announced his retirement as the host of Wheel in June 2023. His final episode of the show proper aired on June 7, 2024. It was the end of an era, and another TV stalwart, Ryan Seacrest, replaced Sajak as host alongside letter turner White. Seacrest made his spin show debut on September 9.
But Sajak’s saved celebrity shows will soon air. And, when asked about her relationship with him now, White said, “I do stay in touch with him. We’re great friends and always will be.”
Plus, Pat’s daughter Maggie Sajak is still part of the Wheel family! “She’s our social media correspondent,” White noted to Parade.
For Celebrity Wheel of Fortune, fans can expect a cast of stars, including The Office’s Rainn Wilson, Josh Gad, Tiffany Haddish, Jessica Capshaw, Regina Hall, Veep’s Matt Walsh, Ellie Kemper, Rachael Harris, Justin Long, Katharine McPhee, and Joe Manganiello.
White promised, “They’re all fun!”
The longtime TV beauty, 68, told Parade her work on Wheel always remains fresh because “every show is different. I have a different dress on, different puzzles. You never know what’s going to happen.”
When asked if she will ever retire from the game show, White said she takes things “one day at a time.”
The eternally upbeat star smiled, “I still love my job.”
In fact, although White and Sajak were a team for decades, she has transitioned seamlessly into working with Seacrest, and shared, “Ryan did his homework and when he joined the show. He said, ‘Listen, I will never replace Pat Sajak. I’m just filling in.’ He’s funny, he’s hard working, he’s a kind man, he’s professional. And he’s doing a good job.”

As for White herself, she commented about her TV icon status and getting recognized everywhere, “I’ve been on for 42 years, which is fine! I’m thrilled that someone still comes up to me and asks me for an autograph or a photo. That makes me feel very good.”
White was accompanied to the April 22 Hulu event by her son Nikko Santo Pietro, 30, a real estate agent. She also has a daughter, Gigi Santo Pietro, 27, a tattoo artist. “It’s great being a mom. I’m so proud of both of my children,” she gushed to Parade.
Other than spending lots of time working and being with her kids, White said, “I crochet, I Scrabble, I sleep. I wear my pajamas half the day.”
With her busy Wheel schedule, Vanna has earned a little rest!
