Earlier this year, it was revealed that Ryan Seacrest will be replacing Pat Sajak when he steps down as the host of “Wheel Of Fortune” at the end of this season. Vanna White will be staying on the game show, and she’s been given a cheeky warning about her future co-host Seacrest.

White Warned About Seacrest
While appearing on “Live with Kelly and Mark” this week, White immediately asked for advice about working with Seacrest, who hosted the ABC talk show “Live With Kelly and Ryan” with Kelly Ripa for six years.
“Tell me everything,” White said to Ripa and Mark Consuelos, who replaced Seacrest on the show.
“He can’t spell,” Consuelos warned, with Ripa immediately agreeing and saying, “Yeah, he cannot spell at all.”
White was visibly shocked by this warning, and Consuelos asked if she’d noticed any misspellings in her text exchanges with Seacrest, with her saying that she had not.
“Maybe he’s on his best behavior?” White asked.
“Maybe he’s dictating the text, and somebody’s typing it for him,” Ripa replied. “Because I will say — and I can say this freely, we all have experienced it here — when Ryan Seacrest texts you, you say to yourself, ‘This person is trying to tell me something.’ That’s the first thing that you realize that Ryan is trying to tell you something, but oftentimes, you just don’t know what that is.”

White went on to say that she plans to get to know Seacrest “very well.”
“I called him to congratulate him on becoming the host,” she continued. “He was just so kind, and so he goes, ‘Look, no one’s ever going to replace Pat. I’m not trying to replace Pat. I’m just thrilled to be able to work with you, and I’ll do whatever it takes. Please teach me whatever I need to know.’”
