Vanna White is alive, still very much with us, and still the beloved face of “Wheel of Fortune.” The heartbreaking “confirmation” making the rounds is not a memorial, but a stark reminder of how easily misinformation can turn admiration into panic. In reality, Vanna continues to work, laugh, and connect with audiences, her legacy being written in real time, not in past tense.
The emotional outpouring triggered by the false news says something powerful about the place she holds in people’s lives. For decades, she has been a constant: gracious, steady, and kind, a gentle nightly ritual in an uncertain world. That so many rushed to grieve her shows how deeply she is cherished. Rather than a farewell, let this moment become a living tribute—an opportunity to honor her now, with gratitude, respect, and the simple joy of still being able to watch her shine.
