In his first marriage, which spanned from 1979 through 1986, Pat Sajack did not welcome any children with Sherrill Sajak.<\/p>\n
Despite his celebrity status as Wheel of Fortune<\/em>\u2018s host, Sajak spent some time single following their divorce.<\/p>\nHowever, he found love again. In 1989, he married Lesly Brown. Together, they went on to welcome two children.<\/p>\n<\/noscript>Pat Sajak and wife Lesly Brown Sajak attend the 25th anniversary celebration of the television game show \u201cWheel Of Fortune\u201d at Radio City Music Hall September 27, 2007.

\n<\/iframe>\n<\/p>\n<\/figure>\n<h2 id=\"h-dr-patrick-sajak\">Dr. Patrick Sajak<\/h2>\n<p>Pat and Lesly welcomed Patrick in 1990. Patrick is, overall, much more private than his father \u2014 a household name \u2014 or his sister. But the world still knows some of his exploits.<\/p>\n<p>In 2021, Pat Sajak took to Wheel of Fortune to \u201cdo a little parental bragging\u201d about Patrick\u2019s medical degree.<\/p>\n<p>His sister, Maggie, also gleefully shared the news on her Instagram page.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"instagram-media\" data-instgrm-captioned=\"\" data-instgrm-permalink=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/p\/CPHeADps1I9\/?utm_source=ig_embed&utm_campaign=loading\" data-instgrm-version=\"14\" style=\" background:#FFF; border:0; border-radius:3px; box-shadow:0 0 1px 0 rgba(0,0,0,0.5),0 1px 10px 0 rgba(0,0,0,0.15); margin: 1px; max-width:540px; min-width:326px; padding:0; width:99.375%; width:-webkit-calc(100% - 2px); width:calc(100% - 2px);\"\/>\n<p>\u201cSo you know my son Patrick? You\u2019ve known him all of his life,\u201d Pat Sajak <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=BySMdD9bHG0\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">told Vanna White<\/a> in 2021. \u201cHe\u2019s made it through medical school, and he\u2019s now officially Dr. Sajak, and we are very thrilled about that.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The host then cracked a joke: \u201cThe only troubling part is he insists that I call him Dr. Sajak.\u201d That is, admittedly, funny.<\/p>\n<p>Sajak continued: \u201cListen, I couldn\u2019t be prouder, and I tried to get him into geriatrics, but he refused, but that\u2019s a personal thing. Anyway, congratulations, son.\u201d<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter\"\/>\n<h2 id=\"h-maggie-sajak\">Maggie Sajak<\/h2>\n<p>That same year, Maggie Sajak officially joined Wheel of Fortune as the show\u2019s social correspondent. <\/p>\n<p>\u201cI\u2019m excited about the opportunity to bring an insider\u2019s look at the show with new behind-the-scenes features, interviews, videos, and insights,\u201d she gushed at the time. \u201cThe <em>Wheel of Fortune<\/em> staff and crew have always been like an extended family, and I\u2019m thrilled to be working with them.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Just for the record, her resume includes more than just working on her father\u2019s show. She has done work on <em>Good Morning America<\/em> and on a 2012 episode of <em>On The Streets<\/em> (when she was a teen, no less!)<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter\"\/>\n<p>Maggie Sajak has other ambitions. At the age of 12, she began learning music and writing songs. At 16, she dropped her debut single, \u201cFirst Kiss.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>However, both of Pat Sajak\u2019s kids share an interest in medicine. In 2013, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cmt.com\/news\/cmt-offstage\/1718900\/maggie-sajak-spins-wheel-for-country.jhtml\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Maggie told <em>CMT<\/em><\/a> that \u201cNeither one \u2014 medicine or country music \u2014 is my fall back plan.\u201d<\/p>\n<p id=\"content-paragraph-12\">Still a teen (many people\u2019s career goals have changed since they were teenagers), she spoke of her plans to focus upon music while she can before pursuing her study of medicine.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter\"\/>\n<h2 id=\"h-pat-sajak-s-kids-are-alright-as-they-say\">Pat Sajak\u2019s kids are alright, as they say<\/h2>\n<p>It\u2019s good to know that Pat Sajak can rest on his laurels after 41 historic seasons of <em>Wheel of Fortune<\/em>.<\/p>\n<p>His children are both thriving adults. One, a public persona, walking parallel to her father\u2019s footsteps. The other, forging his own path as a doctor.<\/p>\n<p>Sajak\u2019s departure from <em>Wheel of Fortune<\/em> is truly the end of an era.
