Wheel of Fortune star Vanna White has tied the knot with her longtime love, real estate developer John Donaldson, in a surprise private ceremony. The couple, who have been together for over a decade, shared the joyful news on Instagram. White's announcement comes after she previously said marriage wasn't necessary for their comfortable relationship.
Oh, darlings, grab your consonants and vowels because Vanna White just spun the wheel straight into matrimony! 👰♀️ The iconic letter-turner announced her surprise wedding to John Donaldson on Instagram Wednesday, posting a swoon-worthy snap of her new hubby scooping her up like he's won the bonus round.
In her caption, Vanna kept it delightfully simple: "Surprise! We got married!" She dished that the pair, who've been head over heels since meeting in 2012, decided to make it official after more than a decade of love. "We’re excited to share this new joyful chapter in our lives with all of you! Love, Vanna and John," she added, serving up that fresh tea with a side of sweetness.
This nuptial plot twist is peak drama — remember, just last October 2023, Vanna told PEOPLE she was so comfy in the relationship that marriage wasn't on the puzzle board. "I feel so comfortable in the relationship, I didn’t see the need to get married," she said back then. But sources close to the couple (via People) reveal they simply "wanted to make it official." Guess eternal comfort evolved into forever vows! 💍
The ceremony was kept ultra-private, no paparazzi crashing this bonus round. Fans are already flooding the comments with congrats, turning Vanna's feed into a celebration jackpot. After decades lighting up our screens, Vanna's off-screen glow-up is the real prize. So, is this the final spin on her love story, or just the start of a whole new game?
