During Monday's 'Wheel of Fortune,' Sajak announced that his dog of 12 years, Stella, had died.

“Wheel of Fortune” host Pat Sajak announced the sad news at the end of Monday’s episode of the long-running game show.

He noted that in a funny twist of fate, he and his co-host, Vanna White, had given their pets the same name without consulting each other. “You and I have a lot of things in common,” he said to White. “We both have two kids, we both have the same unusual blood type, but the weirdest of all is we both independently, without either one knowing it, named our pets the same name.”Sajak explained he was speaking in the past tense since their dog had just passed away and shared a couple photos on the screen of himself with the late pooch.

“It was a very sad time for the Sajak family,” he said. “But we wanted to salute Stella by showing her happier days.”Wheel of FortuneFans on Twitter offered their condolences for the late dog. “#RIPStella Sorry for your loss Pat. On my way home and will hug my furbaby extra tight,” @newyorknight2
