SOUTH LOS ANGELES (KABC) -- "Wheel of Fortune" watchers have been noticing a major absence from the game show this week - Vanna White has been missing, and now we know why.
The TV mainstay had to miss a day of filming in August, when several episodes of the show were recorded, because she had COVID-19.
But "Wheel" was able to find a fitting replacement for "Teachers Week" -- Bridgette Donald-Blue, the "2023 California Teacher of the Year."
Please help put parents in charge of their child’s education by forwarding this article to other parents, family, friends and voters.
