The new deal will keep Vanna White on the show through 2025-26, giving her at least two seasons with new host Ryan Seacrest, Variety reported. Current host Pat Sajak plans to retire after the current season, his 41st with the show.
Terms were not announced, but White had reportedly threatened to quit if her $3 million salary was not raised substantially to get closer to Sajak’s $15 million, TMZ reported in June.
HuffPost reached out to White for comment.
“I love Vanna White,” Seacrest said before the contract status was solidified. “I’ve known Vanna for a long time. We sat in important places next to each other. And I hope for nothing more than to be able to walk out on that stage and host with her.”
