Celebrity Wheel of Fortune season 3 host

Returning to his primetime hosting duties is Pat Sajak. As reported in People, Sajak celebrated 40 years with the standard version of Wheel of Fortune in December 2021, so for anyone else to host the celebrity edition would feel rather uncanny. 

Also by his side, is his figurative partner in crime Vanna White. Again, a staple of the regular show for decades, it would be hard for viewers to imagine anyone else taking her place.
