This week, Wheel of Fortune had a change up for its host and letter-turner… Host Pat Sajak underwent an emergency surgery recently, according to Today. Vanna White stepped away from the letter board to host the show at the wheel and a very special guest took her place to turn the letters. Maggie Sajak, Pat’s daughter, was the perfect person for the job!

Not only is she charismatic AF, she’s super familiar with the show for obvious reasons. She made her debut on the popular game show when she was just a year old. Check out the throwback here:

So if you tune into Wheel of Fortune this week, don’t be surprised to see that switch. Pat will be back once he has fully recovered!
