On Tuesday, October 9th, the celebrity spinoff of Wheel of Fortune was set to film episodes for its 6th season.
Multiple tapings were scheduled for the morning and evening on Tuesday however, The U.S. Sun can confirm that both episodes were canceled at the last minute.
“Both October 9th tapings of Celebrity Wheel of Fortune have been abruptly cancelled the day of the show.

“It’s extremely rare they have canceled tapings like this,” a source claimed.
The insider added: “The next taping is scheduled for October 22 and is expected to resume as normal.”
Members of the studio audience, who come from all over the world to attend a taping, were also apparently notified the day of that the show had been cancelled.

However, a separate source has claimed that the filming delay had “nothing to do” with Vanna or Ryan and was simply a production shift.
The U.S. Sun has reached out to ABC for comment.
QUICK STEPPIN’ IT UP
Season 6 of Celebrity Wheel of Fortune kicked off on September 26th and celebrated fellow ABC show, Dancing With the Stars.
DWTS pro Jenna Johnson, along with judges Derek Hough and Bruno Tonioli, competed on the game show.
“The fact I’m on the set, I feel like I’m dreaming a little bit,” Jenna said of being on the iconic Sony Pictures Studio lot where Wheel of Fortune films.
While Bruno admitted he had “no idea” what he was doing and Derek revealed that he was “terrified.”
Despite the nerves, the trio of fancy-feet celebs were able to score some money for the charity of their choice.
Jenna ended up winning the game and was able to take home a hefty prize for the Muscular Dystrophy Association.
Meanwhile, Derek and Bruno were able to score $20,000 each for their respective charities.
Derek played for Feeding America, while Bruno was able to take some cash back for the Project Angel Food.
WHEEL-Y BIG DEAL
After dominating most of Hollywood since 2002, when American Idol premiered, Ryan made the pivot to the Wheel of Fortune stage in 2024.
He made his highly anticipated debut to fill in for longtime host, Pat Sajak, following the TV legend’s retirement last year.
Vanna has been a staple of the show for over four decades, making her debut in 1982.
She was picked out of over 200 auditioners to be by Pat’s side, and they maintained a close bond in all the years since.
Celebrity Wheel of Fortune airs on Fridays at 8 pm EST on ABC.
