What Is Vanna White’s Age? Her Salary, Net Worth & Personal Life Details Revealed

Describe Vanna American television personality Vanna White is famously known for co-hosting NBC’s favorite game show, Wheel of Fortune alongside Pat Sajak. While her co-host handles the most of the talking, she has been in charge of rotating the game’s puzzle board for more than three decades.

When she was a budding actor, the South Carolina native landed the job on Wheel of Fortune. She has a background in modeling, and while she is not filming the show, she enjoys knitting and crocheting to pass the time. Even her own yarn brand, Vanna’s Choice, is owned by her.

But how old is Vanna White? And how much salary does she earn? See below for information on Vanna White’s age, education, career, earnings, and net worth.

White Is in Her Sixties

In Conway, South Carolina, on February 18, 1957, Vanna Marie Rosich was given the name Vanna White.

Her never-aging looks make it difficult to believe that she is already 64 years old.

Her Life Before Wheel of Fortune

Her mother, Joan Marie Rosich, and her father, Miguel Angel Rosich, divorced when White was a baby.

Her mother and stepfather, Herbert White Jr., raised her after that. But sadly, she lost her mother to ovarian cancer.

Afterward, the game show host was determined to make a place for herself in the entertainment industry. She studied at Atlanta School of Fashion after high school graduation and began her career as a model.

She also gave acting a shot, but she failed miserably. Her first game show experience was as a contestant on The Price Is Right.

She was chosen in 1982 from 200 potential replacements for Susan Stafford on Wheel of Fortune thanks to her experience as a struggling TV personality, which helped her during her audition. She clearly deserved to be chosen, as evidenced by the fact that she has been a part of the program for more than three decades.

The puzzle board turner’s career significantly changed after she passed the Wheel of Fortune audition. In 1982, she officially partnered with co-host Pat Sajak, and they have been a part of the show ever since.

Wheel of Fortune is already in its 38th season as of 2021, and its appeal doesn’t appear to be waning anytime soon.

Meanwhile, the hostess is gaining popularity for wearing more than 6500 stunning gowns for the show. The dresses she wore for the show are not hers to keep. But she can certainly fill her closet with her collection with the money she makes.

According to Celebrity Net Worth, White receives a $10 million paycheck per year. But according to a 2017 Forbes article, White joined Wheel of Fortune and began earning $4 million annually.

What Is Vanna White’s Net Worth?

According to Celebrity Net Worth, the host has a net worth of $70 million and is counting the money from her successful career.

When she sued Playboy in 1987 over the company’s release of images from her early modeling career without her permission, she was awarded a settlement worth $5.2 million.

Likewise, she had also sued the Samsung Electronics Corporation after the company aired a commercial video featuring a smiling robot that turned letters on a game show. The television host stated that the company was using her likeness without permission. Fortunately for White, she prevailed in the lawsuit following a number of appeals and was given a $403,000 damage award.

Besides, she also earned a few bucks from the profit she made after selling her luxurious Beverly Hills-based home, which she owned for the last two decades.

White later sold the house for a much lower price of $19,300,000 in June 2020 after having it listed for $38 million in late 2019. The house included eight bedrooms, ten bathrooms, a huge kitchen, and a four-car garage on a 5.08-acre plot of land. It also had an indoor movie theater and a private gym.

Vanna White’s private life: George Santo Pietro was her husband.

In December 1990, Vanna White got married to restaurant owner George Santo Pietro. Together they welcomed two children: son Nicholas, born in 1994, and a daughter Giovanna, nicknamed Gigi, in 1997. Yet White’s marriage with Pietro could not continue on forever, and they split in November 2002.

Previously (before getting married to Pietro), in the 1980s, White had also dated Playgirl centerfold and Chippendales-dancer-turned-actor John Gibson. They got engaged at some point in the 80s; however, Gibson was killed in a plane crash in 1986, before they got married.

The Wheel of Fortune star and her longtime partner John Donaldson, the creator of JDC Construction + Development Group, are together right now. In 2012, she was introduced to him by a friend, and ever since then, they have been inseparable.

The couple is not looking to getting married, although they are committed to one another.

We desire that Vanna White continues happy in her personal as well as professional life. And we hope to see her young every day in future episodes of Wheel of Fortune. hite’s Age? Her Salary, Net Worth & Personal Life Details Revealed
