Maggie, 28, revealed on Instagram where she puts herself back when she’s not at her dad’s game show.
Bright blonde Maggie held up her Pomeranian in the video and took it on a literal tour of her California bedroom.
As the camera panned around, you could see the entire room, which was completely adorned with pink walls.
Maggie’s bed and bed frame are also pink, and a chic pop art poster hangs above her bed.
In addition, crystal lamps stand on each bedside table and a huge crystal chandelier hangs above them.
Maggie’s room looks directly onto the front yard, though it’s unclear if she lives alone in her father’s $5.5 million Los Angeles mansion.
Maggie captioned the video: “Dealing with my mom’s TikTok trends #pomeranian #pomstagram #pomsofinstagram #pomsofinsta.”
Pat is a father to two adult children with his wife Lesly Brown, 58, son Patrick, 32, and Maggie – currently the game show’s social media correspondent.

PAT’S A WRAP!
On June 12, 2023, Pat shared with fans in a personal note on Twitter: “Well, here we go. I’ve decided that our 41st season, which begins in September, will be my last.”
“It has been a wonderful ride and I will have more to say in the coming months.”
Pat will host until June 2024, when he will step down in place of Ryan Seacrest.
Ryan, 42, shared in a statement delighted with the news, “I can’t wait to continue the tradition of spinning the wheel and working with the amazing Vanna White.”
FANS WANT MORE MAGGIE!
Since the announcement, fans have been demanding that Maggie take on a “bigger role” in the show — maybe even the role of Vanna at some point.
“So you’re the new Vanna White, right?” one follower captioned one of her many glamorous Instagram posts, while another added, “It’s time to make your move.”
A third person mentioned, “Why didn’t you replace Vanna?” while one asked, “Do you practice turning letters? Soon?”
One commenter chimed in: “You must be the new Vanna. Or dare I say the new Pat,” along with a smiling emoji.
Vanna is to be “replaced”.
Vanna White, 66, has been Pat’s counterpart on the puzzle board since 1982.
As it was announced last week, she will miss a few episodes of “Wheel of Fortune” this fall.
Vanna fell ill with Covid-19 in late July while Wheel was filming its annual Teachers Week, due to air in October.
Rather than stop production, the producers decided to use a submarine, according to Puck News.
They contacted Teacher of the Year Award winner Bridgette Donald-Blue to replace Vanna on the week of episodes notice board.
Vanna’s absence from the show will be her first in almost 30 years – and the third since they started in 1982 and Pat in 1981.
But a source said so TV line The popular game show had no choice but to wait for Vanna to recover.
The insider explained that due to the committed schedule, production of “Teachers Week” was forced to proceed without Vanna.
They shared, “The teachers had already arrived in LA to tape the episodes and since the school year was starting it was not possible to reschedule that day.”
The source continued, “In keeping with the theme of Teachers Week, Bridgette Donald-Blue has kindly agreed to represent Vanna for these five episodes.”
Wheel kept Vanna on the board for the second volume day of the special to make up for Vanna’s absence.
As such, Vanna will be featured for a week’s episodes, but not the entire two-week stretch.
VANNA LAWYERS “FOR ALL WOMEN”
However, the long-time letter writer is demanding a hefty salary increase after Pat’s resignation in unresolved negotiations.
Vanna wants a well-deserved raise as she is said to be making half what Pat is making now and hasn’t had a raise in 18 years.
TMZ previously confirmed that Vanna makes about $3 million annually.
According to the outlet, Pat makes about $15 million annually.
sources told People: “50 percent of Pat’s salary is so outrageous that no one in their right mind could say it’s fair.”
The negotiation demands well over 50 percent of his salary. They ask for the same salary – if not more.”
Negotiations between Vanna and Sony have become “very difficult,” an insider familiar with the situation also told TMZ.
Another source claimed the hostess “feels like it’s a statement for all women” and is reportedly negotiating “a modicum of justice.”
Meanwhile, Maggie twice took on puzzles while Vanna was still on screen and did an excellent job.
The first time was in 2019 when her father was recovering from surgery and Vanna was hosting.
The other time happened at the Celebrity Wheel in 2023, which Vanna attended.
