In breaking news, Ryan Seacrest is set to take over as the new host of “Wheel of Fortune.” Pat Sajak, who has been the host of the long-running game show for over 40 years, will pass the torch to Seacrest in the upcoming fall episodes.
During his final show on June 7, Sajak shared his thoughts with Seacrest, stating, “I think what you’re going to enjoy most is meeting the players and getting to know the audience at home. People love this show. They go and see us every day and spend a half hour with us and watch with the whole family.”
Sajak also praised his co-host Vanna White, saying, “You’re never going to find a better job, and you’re never going to find a better co-host.” White is confirmed to remain on the show for the next two years.
In his farewell message, Sajak expressed his gratitude for the opportunity to entertain millions of viewers for so many years. He emphasized the importance of keeping the show a safe and enjoyable space for families, free from controversial topics or political issues.
