“Wheel of Fortune” hosts Ryan Seacrest and Vanna White helped make one contestant’s night a little special.

On Thursday night, during the game show’s 50th anniversary celebration, Seacrest announced they had helped Robin propose to Rhea Mathew, a former “Wheel of Fortune” contestant who competed in October 2023.

“We’re celebrating milestones in honor of our 50th anniversary and actually had one happen earlier in the week right here on the set,” Seacrest announced in a clip uploaded on YouTube. 

“Robin, the boyfriend of former contestant Rhea, reached out for our help in asking her a big question,” Vanna added.

She explained that with the help of announcer Jim Thornton, they were able to create “a bit of a ruse, making Rhea think she was back to celebrate ‘Wheel’s’ 50th.”

“But take a look and see what happened,” White added, before panning to Robin and Rhea’s proposal.

In the clip, Rhea solved the “Will You Marry Me?” puzzle.

“Nicely done,” Thornton told Rhea.

Robin walked on the stage, got down on one knee and asked, “Rhea Susan Mathew, will you marry me?” The former contestant appeared shocked and nodded in agreement.
