Wheel of Fortune’s Vanna White and Ryan Seacrest recently pulled off a big surprise for a former contestant. She had no idea a wedding proposal was on the way, and the surprise went off without a hitch.
The Bride-to-Be Was Completely Shocked
The show’s Instagram page shared a clip of the beautiful moment on January 9. The caption read, “Screaming, crying, losing our minds over this sweet Wheel proposal!”
The video showed White and Seacrest setting up the big moment. “We’re celebrating milestones in honor of our 50th anniversary and actually had one happen earlier in the week right here on the set,” Seacrest explained.
White added, “Robin, the boyfriend of former contestant Rhea, reached out for our help in asking her a big question… We created a bit of a ruse, making Rhea think she was back to celebrate Wheel’s 50th.”

Then, the video showed Rhea and two other “contestants” working to solve a puzzle. Rhea solved it, and it read, “Will you marry me?” At that point, her boyfriend walked onto the stage, and Rhea was completely stunned.
Robin kissed her and knelt on one knee to ask her to marry him. The proposal stunned her, but she said yes.
The Instagram post received many sweet comments from viewers, including one from Rhea herself.
She wrote, “AHHH thank you thank you thank you for making this into a reality!!! 🥹🥹🥹 beyond even my wildest of dreams!!”
The groom-to-be also commented. “A moment we’ll never forget!!! Thank you [Wheel of Fortune] for making magic happen! You all are the absolute best!!!”
