Vanna White may take over Pat Sajak’s hosting gig after all if the rumors about Ryan Seacrest’s spelling capabilities are true.

That’s because, apparently, the future Wheel of Fortune host isn’t a good speller.

Following Season 41 of Wheel of Fortune, Ryan will be filling Pat’s shoes as the new host of the popular weeknight game show, and being a good speller is kind of important, given the nature of Ryan’s upcoming role.

Ryan Seacrest is thrilled to be teaming up with Vanna White when he starts his duties as the host of “Wheel of Fortune” next fall.

Seacrest shared his joyous reaction after White extended her contract for the syndicated game show through the 2025-26 season.

“Vanna has been such a staple on that show and in our living rooms for so many years. I have been very excited to work with her, but now that it’s official, I can say, ‘Congratulations, Vanna! I can’t wait.’”
