Vanna White is taking a moment to celebrate her not-so-little girl.
The “Wheel of Fortune” co-host took to her Instagram page on Monday to wish her daughter Gigi Santo Pietro a happy birthday. Santo Pietro, a tattoo artist, turns 27 on July 1.
White shared a side-by-side collage of White as a baby and now as an adult. In the baby photo, Santo Pietro wore an adorable baby blue dress with a white floral hem along the skirt. The present-day photo shows Santo Pietro rocking a pair of chic sunglasses and white tank top.
“Happy 27th to my amazing daughter @gigisantopietro!” White wrote. “You are so beautiful, smart, kind and a talented artist! I love you Gigi! ❤️”
Santo Pietro is the daughter of White and film and TV technician George Santo Pietro. The former couple was married from 1990-2002.
