Wheel of Fortune host Ryan Seacrest is doing way better than critics expected after he took over from Pat Sakaj, but is he getting too big for his britches as the ratings for the game show soar? Read on to find out what’s allegedly happening behind the scenes.

WoF Insiders Leak Stories About Ryan Seacrest

Before Pat Sajak left, some fans of the game show felt that he was getting too old for the job. But, when the American Idol host came in as his replacement, a lot of people slammed the decision. Some critics felt that Vanna White should have moved up as host. 

Insiders have been leaking news about Ryan Seacrest, and one of them claimed that Pat’s replacement is so broken from Wheel of Fortune fans saying nasty things, that he’s seeking therapy. Some people might argue that it’s unlikely, as he got plenty of critics when he worked on Live With Kelly and Ryan. This week, more news leaked and Closer Weekly reported on the development.

Too Big For His Britches? 

Some rumors have it that Pat Sajak’s replacement is terrified he won’t live up to expectations. However, the new story suggests that he’s getting too big for his britches. Everyone knows that Wheel of Fortune got a big jump in ratings when Ryan took over, and now, he’s allegedly walking around with “a swagger.”

The outlet wrote about the insider source claiming Ryan Seacrest seems to be something of a golden boy at WoF. The Insider claimed:

…after his ratings success on Wheel of Fortune, now he’s talking about implementing changes to improve the flow of the show. He’s giving people more responsibility, and the fear is it puts Vanna in more peril even if she doesn’t realize it. They both play nice but make no mistake he’s the one getting all the credit here.

The Insider also claimed that Ryan Seacrest does not like that “Vanna White” likes to get together with Pat Sajak during meal times. Wow, that sounds a bit juvenile, but in showbiz, these things may matter. After all, it seems that the entertainment industry is a bit of a dog-eat-dog business. Furthermore, the source said, “If he wants to bring a younger, more modern hostess he probably can do that even if Vanna has done a deal”

What are your thoughts about Ryan Seacrest allegedly being able to make any changes that he likes as long as the ratings stay high for Wheel of Fortune? Do you think he might target Vanna White who helped him learn his job in the game show? Sound off in the comments below, and remember to come back here often for all your celebrity news and updates.

    I’m not a Ryan Seacrest fan and feel he’s so fake. I’ve watched WoF for more years than I can remember now if I watch it it’s because it just happens to be in when we turn the TV on. We used to make sure we had the TV on in time to watch it. Now, sometimes we only catch the tail end of the show. If Vanna is removed I will refuse to watch it.

      This article is ridiculous. Ryan is great. Who cares. It was time for Pat to retire.

    I do not care too much for Ryan Seacrest as he leans on the wheel & keeps his hands in his pockets a lot. He seems rocky & if you get pat sajak back it would be great. I watch it some but used to never miss it
    Nothing is the same without pat
    Please bring him back. He is not too.old
    He doesn’t look or act his age
    Also don’t get rid of Vanna
    Hecwasca great host!!!!

    Oh leave Ryan alone!! He is doing a great job.. Here is a person that with his sweet family that open hospital for Children to try to forget they are ill for a minute to entertain them and your saying things that are untrue.. I think Ryan Seacrest is very successful and good at what he does..

    Ryan appears rather arrogant and considers himself the “star” on WOF while he stands with his hands in his pockets. I dislike his phony nervous smile. I’ve watched WOF faithfully for the past 30 years. Now that Ryan Seacrest became host I seldom watch it. I also do not like the way he treats Vanna with his condescending attitude towards Vanna and the contestants.
