At the time it was reported that her salary was bumped from $3million to $10million a year.
However it’s not been revealed whether or not the show’s longest-running host will stay on when her current contract expires.
During an interview with Forbes, Vanna was asked who she thinks would be a suitable replacement should she ever decide to leave.
Suggesting the audience should have a say, she shared advice for the potential new host, saying: “Be yourself, and know the entire alphabet!
Vanna previously revealed how many days she works a year to earn her estimated $10million salary.
In a chat with Elvis Duran and The Morning Show, she said: “We film about 34 days a year.
“That’s it. But [we film] six shows a day. Come on… You could feel bad for me.”
Elvis replied: “I do not feel sorry for you one bit. That sounds like a great job.”
Last year Vanna welcomed a new co-host to the show when Ryan Seacrest took over from Pat Sajak, who made his debut in 1981.
She recently showed off a bold new look while hosting alongside Ryan, 50 – leaving fans divided.
One wrote: “I LOVE this look. She looks amazing! I enjoy the fancy ball gowns of the past years, but switching it up with a fun outfit like this is good too.”
But others were less convinced, speculating that show bosses are styling Vanna “younger” after Ryan joined the show last year.
Someone speculated: “She has changed up her outfits – I think in response to Ryan being younger. It’s for the better. She looks fantastic.”
Another said: “I like it. I feel like they are trying to dress her a little younger/hipper to more match Ryan’s style.
