Sweet as Cream
The North Myrtle Beach, South Carolina native is a fan of Original Painters Homemade Ice Cream, where there’s a sundae on the menu named for her. If you’re in the area, you can try the Vanna Banana sundae for yourself.
She’s Got a Star on the Walk
White can be found on Hollywood Boulevard, as she was awarded her own star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame back in 2006. She was honored that day by co-host Pat Sajak, Jeopardy!‘s Alex Trebek and Merv Griffin.
She Loves a (Krispy Kreme) Doughnut
In a more recent Instagram post, White conveyed her inability to resist a Krispy Kreme confection. In a post shared at an even earlier date, she revealed that when she was growing up, the nearby shop’s “Hot” sign always drew her in for a fresh doughnut.
She’s a Proud Mom of Two
This may be less unknown than other facts about White, but if you missed her pregnancies on Wheel back in the ’90s, then you may not know she has a son and a daughter. Both feature heavily on her social media pages.
