Ryan Seacrest talks about working with Vanna White on Wheel of Fortune amid feud rumors
Ryan Seacrest has admitted working with Vanna White has been ‘out of body’ for him as he discusses their relationship after rumors the pair were feuding.
Ryan Seacrest has been opening up about his working relationship with Vanna White ahead of their Wheel of Fortune co-hosting debut.
Speaking in a special interview to promote the new era of the show Ryan gushed about their collaboration to ABC News’ Ginger Zee on Good Morning America as he said: “I mean, it’s ‘Wheel of Fortune.’ How could you not be happy?”
Vanna meanwhile shared her own excitement adding: “It’s energetic, it’s positive, it’s fun. I’m so excited.”
Ryan then elaborated on how it feels to work with Vanna as he enthused: “I mean, it’s out of body. It’s out of body for me, you know, to have watched Vanna, and watched this show and Pat, and what they’ve built with audiences across this country.
“And what this show means to people in their living rooms every night, and their families, and generations of people who have watched this show, it is a very special thing that just doesn’t exist anywhere else.”
The New York Times confirmed that Ryan is signed to host “through the early 2030s,” which means he’s set to spin the wheel for at least six years.
They wrote: “The chairman of Sony said that one reason he signed Mr. Seacrest through the early 2030s was to help the show transition to the streaming world.”
The outlet also stated that “Wheel of Fortune has almost no presence on streaming services today,” they continued.

However, Sony chairman Tony Vinciquerra told the Times they hope Ryan can transform that aspect of the show.
He said: “We want to have the continuity of the host, someone who is well known, and who will travel with the show through that transition, I can’t think of a better person to do that with than Ryan.”
