'Wheel of Fortune' star Vanna White was left puzzled after social media users called her son Nikko Santo Pietro a 'thirst trap.' Last month, White, 67, shared an Instagram video in which she and Santo Pietro were seen in the kitchen as they cooked a chicken dish. After fans used the slang phrase to describe the 30-year-old real estate agent, White appeared to be unfamiliar with the meaning of the term during Thursday's episode of the long-running game show.
Obviously, I had an outpour from her fans just really being kind and saying all kinds of interesting stuff in the comments,' he said. Santo Pietro, who works at The Agency, the real estate company owned by Mauricio Umansky, ex-husband of 'Real Housewives of Beverly Hills' star Kyle Richards, added, 'I’ve always loved being in front of the camera, and I work really hard on my social media. That’s a big part of what I do, so it feels natural and good.
would love that,' White said when asked if fans could expect to see Santo Pietro on 'Wheel of Fortune.' She noted that her former co-host Pat Sajak’s daughter, Maggie Sajak, has appeared the show many times, including filling in for White while she took over Sajak’s role as host in 2020 when he underwent surgery. Maggie has also worked as the show’s social media correspondent since 2021.
