The February 14, 2023 installment of Wheel of Fortune saw three couples join hosts Pat Sajak and Vanna White for Valentine’s Day during the show’s Sweethearts Week. The episode introduced contestants Nick and Abi from Phoenix, AZ, Roger, and Toni Bushong, who have been married for 31 years, and Kadeine and Josh Peterson, who relocated from New York to California.
Nick, who works in real estate, and Abi, a stay-at-home mom, have been together for five years—although they joke 20 (Sajak suggests they met in the nursery)—and have three daughters. The Bushongs enjoy pickleball, outrigger canoes, off-roading, oh yeah, and an adult son (which explains the extreme activities.) Lastly, The Petersons are parents of two who met during college; they both work at a boarding school.

A highlight from the episode featured the couples attempting to solve the triple toss-up, which asked, “What are you doing?” with answers including indulgent date responses such as “ordering appetizers,” “ordering dessert,” and “ordering a second dessert.”
However, it was Roger and Toni who drove away the winners with a Mercedes Benz GLA250 worth $45,995 and $64,945 worth of cash and prizes in the trunk.
The couple on the left was the worst couple ever. They should break up immediately. #wheeloffortune
