Vanna White Continues on Wheel with Seacrest

Vanna White expressed initial fears about her on-screen chemistry with new Wheel of Fortune host Ryan Seacrest following Pat Sajak’s retirement after 41 years. Despite her worries, White praised Seacrest, noting their long-standing acquaintance and recent travels together have fostered a good working rapport. Seacrest, who signed a multi-year deal to replace Sajak, expressed humility and gratitude for the opportunity to follow in Sajak's footsteps. White, who signed a two-year deal to remain as co-host until the 2025-26 season, was involved in a contract dispute over pay disparity but ultimately received a significant raise. Sajak's final episode drew over 11 million viewers, marking the show's largest audience in four years. Seacrest's debut as host is scheduled for September 9.
