A Legendary Duo Says Goodbye: Vanna White’s Emotional Farewell to Pat Sajak

After over 40 incredible years together on Wheel of Fortune, Vanna White bid an emotional farewell to her beloved co-host Pat Sajak. With Sajak’s final episode set to air on June 7, White took a moment to honor his remarkable legacy and celebrate their enduring friendship.

As she stood on the iconic stage, White’s voice trembled with emotion as she began to express her gratitude and admiration for Sajak. “I’m struggling to put into words what these past 40 years have meant to me,” she confessed. “8,000 episodes have flown by, and from the moment I started, you made me feel so comfortable and confident, Pat. You’ve truly made me who I am today.”

White fondly recalled the countless memories they’ve shared, both on and off camera. While their time in the spotlight has been filled with laughter and excitement, she cherished the quiet moments they’ve shared with their families, away from the studio lights. As she spoke, White’s eyes welled up with tears, and her voice cracked with emotion.

The two have shared a journey that spans decades, watching each other’s children grow up, exploring the world together, and creating a treasure trove of memories. “What an incredible and unforgettable journey we’ve had,” White exclaimed, her voice filled with nostalgia.

As she concluded her heartfelt message, White turned to Sajak and said, “I’ve enjoyed every minute of knowing you. As this chapter of our lives comes to a close, I know you’ll always be close by. You’re like a brother to me, a true lifelong friend who I will always adore. I love you, Pat.”

The poignant moment was met with a warm applause from the audience, and Sajak, visibly touched, could only muster a humble “Oh my.” The beloved host had announced his retirement from the show in June 2023, marking the end of an era for Wheel of Fortune. As the curtains close on this chapter, White’s emotional farewell serves as a testament to the enduring bond between two television legends.
