Maggie Sajak, Pat’s daughter, has been a mainstay on ‘Wheel of Fortune’ for quite some time.
Maggie Sajak, Pat’s daughter, has been a regular on Wheel of Fortune for a while now.
When Pat needed unexpected surgery in 2020, Maggie was brought in to fill in as a turn letter reader, and Vanna White took over as host. Maggie became a social correspondent, providing insights into the production of the legendary game show.
After Pat’s retirement hint, some Wheel followers think he’ll train his daughter to take over. Please get to know Maggie Sajak now so you can brag about knowing her while she was at the height of her fame.
On Wheel of Fortune, who is Maggie?
Pat Sajak’s daughter is named Maggie. She is the social reporter for Wheel of Fortune and makes guest appearances to tease her famous father and reveal behind-the-scenes antics.
Wheel of Fortune: Will Pat Sajak’s daughter host?
No one has been announced as the new host of Wheel of Fortune once Pat Sajak steps down. However, Sajak and Vanna White are only contracted to host and turn letters through 2024, so things might alter well after that year.
What is the significance of Pat Sajak’s daughter appearing on the show?
During Pat Sajak’s hospitalization in late 2019, Maggie Sajak appeared on Wheel of Fortune. When Pat was absent, Maggie filled in as guest letter-turner, and Vanna White hosted in his place.
Maggie claimed that White had visited the Sajaks’ house to give her advice and encouragement as she prepared to step into the Sajaks’ very high heels.
“She gave me a short lesson, like on our refrigerator, of how to press the letters and how hard to push them and all that,” Maggie said to Yahoo! Entertainment. “Even though she was sitting in for my dad that week and had a lot on her plate, she was so kind as to educate me. We were both exposed to something novel, and for that, I am grateful.”
How exactly did Maggie Sajak get recruited?
Let’s be clear: Maggie Sajak got her position because her father is Pat Sajak. Her father was relieved that they could “sort of keep it in the family” when she stepped in for Vanna White when Pat had a medical issue. A lot was going on because of the situation that had befallen him, so he needed to find ways to keep things as straightforward as possible while ensuring their smooth progression. I think that made a big difference to him.
