Legendary Game Show Host Chuck Woolery Spins His Final Wheel at 83

Chuck Woolery, the man who made matchmaking and spinning vowels a national pastime, has passed away at the age of 83. The iconic host of Wheel of Fortune and Love Connection left us all wondering whoโ€™ll now supply the charm and dad jokes we didnโ€™t know we needed.

The heartbreaking news came courtesy of his pal and Blunt Force Truth co-host Mark Young, who shared the update on X (formerly known as Twitter, but still as confusing to explain).

โ€œWith a shattered heartโ€”and possibly a broken Caps Lock keyโ€”I must share that my dear brother @chuckwoolery has just passed away,โ€ Mark posted. โ€œLife wonโ€™t be the same without him. RIP, brother.โ€

Mark, clearly a true friend, later spoke to TMZ, where he shared some additional details. He revealed that he was with Chuck at his Texas home when things took a turn for the worse. Chuck started feeling unwell, and his symptoms escalated to the point where breathing became a struggleโ€”a grim reminder that even TV legends arenโ€™t immune to lifeโ€™s curveballs.

For those of us who grew up watching Chuck flash his megawatt smile while helping contestants win prizes (and sometimes true love), this news hits like a vowel puzzle without a single clue.

Our heartfelt thoughts go out to Chuckโ€™s loved ones, his many fans, and anyone who ever nervously guessed a consonant on national television because of his encouragement. Rest in peace, Chuck. May your next adventure involve nothing but jackpots and the occasional free spin.
