Hey there, friends. Let me tell you a story about two legends who have been lighting up our screens for decades. Vanna White and Pat Sajak, the dream team of Wheel of Fortune, have been working side by side for over three decades. But you know what’s fascinating? According to Vanna, the two rarely argue. In fact, the only spat they’ve had in 36 years had absolutely nothing to do with the show. Can you believe that? Let’s dive into their incredible relationship and find out more about what makes them such a dynamic duo.
A Single Spat in Over Three Decades
When you’ve spent more than three decades together, you’d think there’d be at least a few disagreements, right? Not so for Vanna White and Pat Sajak. In a candid interview with Fox News on May 10, Vanna revealed their only disagreement ever—and it wasn’t about spinning wheels or puzzle-solving. Nope, it was all about condiments. That’s right, folks, the one and only argument between these two powerhouse personalities was over whether ketchup belongs on a hotdog. Vanna, now 62, confessed, “Believe it or not, Pat Sajak and I have only had one argument in 36 years, and that was over putting ketchup on a hotdog.” She went on to say, “I agree it is [weird].” Vanna, a fan of both ketchup and mustard, couldn’t quite understand why Pat, who prefers only mustard, would take such a strong stance on this seemingly trivial topic.
Pat Sajak's Guinness World Record
Pat Sajak, now 72, has achieved a remarkable milestone in his illustrious career. Recently, he was awarded the Guinness World Record for the “Longest Career as a Game Show Host of the Same Show.” This incredible achievement was celebrated on-air during Wheel of Fortune on May 8. Pat, ever the gentleman, took the opportunity to thank his long-time cohost, Vanna White. He said, “Thank you very much!” before turning to Vanna and gushing, “I couldn’t have done it without you, kid.” Pat’s acknowledgment of Vanna’s contribution highlights the deep respect and admiration they have for each other.

A Special Bond That Keeps Fans Coming Back
Pat and Vanna have been captivating audiences with their special bond for decades. Their chemistry is palpable, and it’s one of the reasons fans keep tuning in. This past February, Vanna opened up about her relationship with Pat, shedding light on what makes their partnership so successful. In an exclusive interview with Closer Weekly, she revealed, “People at home see the chemistry between Pat and me. We are like brother and sister, and I think that is what makes it work.” Vanna’s words underscore the authenticity of their relationship, which has clearly stood the test of time.
Best Friends Beyond the Spotlight
The camaraderie between Pat and Vanna isn’t just for show. Off-screen, they genuinely care about each other. Vanna has said, “We get along so well and are really best friends. We always have been.” Their friendship is as real as it gets, and that’s what makes their on-screen chemistry so believable. Even today, Vanna and Pat continue to make time to come together four days per month to film Wheel of Fortune. Their contract extends until at least 2022, and both have made it clear that when the time comes to leave, they’ll do it together. As Vanna once put it, “I can’t imagine being up there with someone else.” And you know what? Neither can we!
