Los Angeles Shines Bright as Vanna White Continues Her Iconic Journey on “Wheel of Fortune”
In the heart of Los Angeles, the beloved game show “Wheel of Fortune” is not just continuing; it’s thriving with the iconic Vanna White at the forefront. Having first graced television screens back in 1982, Vanna has become a cherished part of American entertainment. Despite the significant changes surrounding the show, including the retirement of long-time host Pat Sajak in 2024, Vanna has remained a constant, beloved presence.
Fans of the show can breathe a sigh of relief as Vanna’s future has been secured!

Fashion and Fabulousness: Vanna’s Iconic Wardrobe
Vanna White is also known for her stunning fashion sense. Throughout her career, she has worn an impressive collection of over 7,500 dresses, each adding elegance to her on-screen presence. Intriguingly, instead of purchasing these dresses, she opts to rent them, showcasing her unique approach to fashion on television.
Wealth and Real Estate Ventures
With a net worth of approximately $85 million, it’s clear that Vanna’s career has been nothing short of lucrative. Much of her wealth comes from smart investments, especially in real estate. She’s made headlines not just for her work on TV but also for her luxurious homes. Currently, she’s living in a magnificent 3,000-square-foot property in Sherman Oaks, which comes with a hefty rental price tag of $20,000 a month. This stunning residence boasts high-end amenities, including an infinity pool, a spa, an outdoor kitchen, and breathtaking mountain views.
In Beverly Hills, she owns a Mediterranean-style mansion valued at approximately $10.8 million. This property features seven bedrooms, nine bathrooms, a private movie theater, and a gym—definitely perfect for her glamorous lifestyle. Before these homes, Vanna also lived in a lavish 14,554-square-foot mansion that she built with her ex-husband.
A Busy Life Beyond the Show
Vanna’s career isn’t just restricted to “Wheel of Fortune.” She has graced the covers of renowned magazines like Parade, People, and Newsweek. Her travels have taken her to glamorous destinations worldwide, including a memorable trip to Iceland with her daughter back in 2016. In 2019, she even had the honor of being named the godmother of the Carnival cruise ship Carnival Panorama, a nod to her long-standing connection with the show.
Golfing Fame and High-Flying Adventures
Vanna also has a passion for golf and has participated in various events, including the Myrtle Beach Classic. During her heyday in the ’90s, she owned two private jets, each valued at around $2.1 million, which she used for personal travels as well as renting out for extra income.
A New Era with Ryan Seacrest
With the arrival of Ryan Seacrest as the new host, fans can expect excitement and fresh moments on the show. Vanna describes her relationship with Seacrest as one of strong partnership, built on mutual respect and fun chemistry. The duo has even developed a fun backstage tradition of checking in on each other before the taping begins, showcasing their comfort level and friendship in this new chapter.
Recently, they’ve shared laughs and camaraderie, including Vanna crocheting a baby blanket for a colleague. It’s this connection that makes “Wheel of Fortune” feel like her home away from home.
Rumors and Relationships
As she continues to shine on the small screen, late 2024 stirred some buzz when Vanna was spotted wearing a large diamond ring! While this sparked engagement rumors, it turns out she’s happily unengaged and content in her relationship with boyfriend John Donaldson.
With the introduction of “Celebrity Wheel of Fortune,” which features celebrities competing for charity, the game show continues to thrill audiences. Vanna’s enduring legacy in television is stronger than ever, making her one of the most celebrated figures in American entertainment history.
