Vanna White and Pat Sajakare the faces of “Wheel of Fortune.”
They have been a part of the game show family since the early 1980s.
The host, welcomed into our homes every weeknight, announced his retirement in June.
Hetweeted, “Well, the time has come.
I’ve decided that our 41st season, which begins in September, will be my last.
It’s been a wonderful ride, and I’ll have more to say in the coming months.
Many thanks to you all.
(If nothing else, it’ll keep the clickbait sites busy!)”
His retirement doesn’t seem to be an endless vacation.
Sajak has two jobs post-hosting.
He will still be behind the scenes on “Wheel.”
However, the other role is far from his work on the primetime show.
The celebrity will lead a small private Christian liberal arts college.
He later became the chairman of the conservative Michigan institute in 2019 after his predecessor William Brodbeck retired.
Now with his hosting days behind him, the TV personality can focus on his leadership duties.
While Sajak continues the legacy of leadership in Michigan, he is also serving at the “Wheel.”
“So we’re thrilled to have him remaining close to the ‘Wheel of Fortune’ family!”
Fortunately, the Sajak touch will still be there.
He will be much help as Ryan Seacrest fills the coveted spot.
It was a great run that ended over money.
Now another popular face is taking the reins.
Now “Wheel of Fortune” is fitting into his massive portfolio.
The longtime host also gave his mark of approval.
