White Wheel Of Fortune
HOLLYWOOD, California –
Producers of long-running game show Wheel Of Fortune are in crisis mode after being forced to fire presenter Vanna White after over thirty years of service. The shocking firing comes after footage was released of White in a casino, compulsively playing roulette.
“We appreciate Vanna’s 32 years with us,” said director Bob Cisneros. “However, her recent actions have compromised the production of this all-American favorite. The betrayal felt by viewers upon seeing her spinning around with other wheels is too great to be tolerated. It’s as if she is a wife who cheated on her husband, and her husband are the Wheel of Fortune viewers. She is no longer the loyal servant we once knew and loved.”
Although Vanna White has become a game show icon, thanks to her almost four decades on Wheel of Fortune, Susan Stafford was the original Wheel letter-turner. Stafford, born on Jan. After Wheel of Fortune hostess Susan Stafford left in October 1982, White was selected as one of three substitute hostesses (along with Vicki McCarty and Summer Bartholomew) to co-host the show. On December 13, 1982, White became the regular hostess. White is signed as a hostess of Wheel of Fortune until 2022.
Harry Ray, owner of Monte Casino where White was caught on camera, has come out in support of the game show hostess, saying that her actions suggest a greater public shift in American optimism.
Pat Sajak and Vanna White are back with a new 'Celebrity Wheel of Fortune,' featuring stars playing for their favorite charities. White said it's a first for the long-running show. Jan 27, 2021 Sajak has been hosting Wheel of Fortune, the longest-running syndicated game show in the U.S., since 1982. White joined him as a letter turner that same year, and the pair have been the face of the.
“The public have come to the realization that casinos are a better avenue in which to pursue the American dream. Where once you had to work hard to get onto exclusive game shows, now anyone can be a winner. From the lowest of the low, to those born to money, everyone has the potential to become the president of Gamblers Anonymous.”
A social media campaign has been initiated against Ray, with some claiming the whole thing was a publicity stunt, a set-up to promote his business.
“Cameras are never allowed in casinos,” said one Wheel of Fortune loyalist. “Why was Vanna being filmed in the first place, and how did the cameraman know she’d be there? Wake up, people. These are questions we all need to be asking.”
Vanna White could not be reached for comment, but a source close to her stated that she is experiencing great remorse, and insisting it was a one-off fling.
“Vanna loves the Wheel,” the source, on condition of anonymity, told reporters. “But everyone slips up. She was overcome by perfectly human feelings, and made a big mistake. Now she has to pay for it, but it shouldn’t mean the end of this relationship. She is going to fight tooth and nail to try get her position back. If not for herself, she’ll do it for the viewers, and she’ll do it for the love of those light-up letters.”

Vanna White kicked off 2020 with a family photo, which fans rarely see from her. The Wheel of Fortune host has been in the headlines a lot lately thanks to her stint in Pat Sajak's place, but fans still know little about her life off-camera. Now she is sharing a bit more.
White was arm-in-arm with her long-time boyfriend, John Donaldson in her latest Instagram photo. On her other side was her daughter, Giovanna, and on Donaldson's other side was her son, Nicholas. All four wore flower leis around their necks and big smiles on their faces.
'Happy New Year from our family to yours,' White captioned the photo, along with the hashtag '2020.'
White's children come from her marriage to George Santo Pietro, a restaurant owner whom she wed in 1990. They announced on pregnancy on Wheel of Fortune itself, making the answer to a puzzle 'Vanna's pregnant.' However, White suffered a miscarriage soon after, ending the touching stunt in tragedy.
White had Nicholas in 1994 and Giovanna in 1997, both in her relationship with San Pietro. The couple then divorced in 2002. She went on to a serious relationship with businessman Michael Kaye before landing with Donaldson, the owner of a construction development company.
It appears that White's kids are fond of Donaldson as well, judging by their New Year's Eve picture together. The happy family was gathered in front of a serene pool of water, surrounded by lavish landscaping complete with palm trees, and a distant view of the twilit horizon. White did not reveal where they spent the holiday, but wherever it was it was gorgeous.

White recently told Closer Weekly that she is not concerned about tying the knot with Donaldson unless it would somehow add to their happiness.

'We’ve been together for eight years and it seems to be working so we’re both happy, so in my eyes, I feel — in both of our eyes — we feel married,' White explained. 'So I don’t think you necessarily have to have a piece of paper unless you want to. Everybody’s different, so for each his own.'
