Maggie Sajak Talks ‘Awesome’ Ryan Seacrest as Host of ‘Wheel of Fortune’

Pat Sajak’s daughter, Maggie Sajak, talks about Ryan Seacrest replacing her dad as new ‘Wheel of Fortune’ host on the hit game show

While Seacrest made his debut on the flagship show earlier this month, Sajak is set to return to host his final season of Celebrity Wheel of Fortune, which premieres Monday, October 7. The TV personality became a staple of the small screen after taking over for original Wheel of Fortune host Chuck Woolery in 1981 and was joined by cohost Vanna White one year later. Maggie and her family were protective over Wheel of Fortune and how it would move forward following Pat’s departure, but she feels “it is in great hands so we’re excited to see where it goes.”
