Vanna Reacts to Wheel of Fortune Without Pat Sajak

Pat Sajak and Vanna White are synonymous with Wheel of Fortune, but what of a future in which the dynamic duo is no longer leading the show? Who could possibly fill the shoes of those two game show icons? We survived the departure of the original host Chuck Woolery, but that was over forty years ago. Pat Sajak replaced Woolery and has been there ever since. So what does Vanna White think about a Wheel of Fortune life without her partner Pat Sajak?

"I don't even want to think about that," White told People when asked about Sajak telling Entertainment Tonight that the pair is "certainly closer to the end than the beginning" of their time on the game show last year. "I mean, we're a team. That's depressing. I don't even want to think about it."

Sajak joined Wheel of Fortune as host in 1981, and White joined as the series' beloved letter turner the following year.

White credited their long careers on the game show to creator Merv Griffin seeing "a brother-sister type relationship" between her and Sajak.

"And I think that is kind of what it is," she said. "He saw that we would be able to get along, and we do. We are like a brother and sister team."

White admitted it's hard to imagine the future of Wheel of Fortune without her and Sajak, likening them to Ken and Barbie in terms of being a pair.

"I just visualize us just being there. I can't think beyond that," she said, later adding, "We've been in everybody's homes for 40 years, so it would be weird having somebody else turn my letters."

So Vanna is not ready to say goodbye to the show, but she doesn't have to right now because both Sajak and White are currently under contract to host Wheel of Fortune through 2024.

There's nothing better than planning a trip around the holidays with your loved ones. What makes it even more special is when your destination is known for its Christmas charm.

As we hang the countless strands of lights around the house, decorate the tree, and wrap the gifts, some people are also packing their bags for that holiday trip they've waited months to take.

Thanks to Travel + Leisure, we now have 25 of the best Christmas towns across the United States from coast to coast right in one place. Luckily, we have two of the locations right here in New Jersey, Cape May, and Atlantic City.

There are 48 miles and about a 51-minute drive between the New Jersey sports that made Travel + Leisure's list for 2022. Both offer shopping, dining experiences, and plenty of holiday activities for people of all ages.
