TMZ reports that they were previously spotted together, but no one could identify Maggie at the time. The media outlet also caught Pat Sajak’s daughter and the actor exchanging flirty comments on Instagram. McCall was spotted calling Sajak a “beauty.”
McCall, who is known for his roles in Band of Brothers and White Collar, was previously engaged to Jennifer Love Hewitt. However, the engagement ended in 2009.
In 2019, he and Alessandra Mastronardi made the red carpet debut. He proposed to her in 2021 but ended up breaking things off.
Meanwhile, Pat Sajak’s daughter is known for her country music talents. She has released various hit tracks over the years, including her first single First Kiss. She also recorded Live Out Loud to honor cancer patient Muriel Walters.
Maggie appeared on Wheel of Fortune in 2020 to take over for Vanna White. White had filled in as host when Maggie’s father Pat Sajak underwent surgery.
For the show’s 2021-2022 season, Maggie was a social media correspondent. She also filled in for White on Celebrity Wheel of Fortune last year.
Vanna White Says Pat Sajak’s Daughter Maggie is a ‘Good Replacement’ for Her on ‘Wheel of Fortune’
As Pat Sajak prepares to officially retire from Wheel of Fortune, Vanna White stated his daughter Maggie would be a great replacement for her on the hit game show.
“I think she’s a good replacement if I can’t be there for some reason,” White said about Maggie last fall. “She’s been around it her whole life, so I think she can fill it for me for sure.”
White further pointed out that Pat Sajak’s “signature charm” has “rubbed off” on Maggie. “She’s precious, she’s beautiful, she’s very good,” White praised. “I think she learned a lot from her father because he’s such a good interviewer. I think she’s good for our show.”
In June 2023, Pat Sajak announced his plans to retire from Wheel of Fortune after four decades. Ryan Seacrest has since been announced as Sajak’s successor.
Although Sajak is leaving the show, White has decided to extend her contract through Seacrest’s first season of hosting. However, she admitted it’s going to be “really hard” for her to be on the show with Sajak.
