“I’m perfectly happy if it just means that I’ll continue with my crossword puzzles and play with grandchildren. Hint hint hint. No pressure,” he joked in a clip obtained by “Good Morning America” Monday.

Pat added, “It’s been a great 40 years, and I’m looking forward to whatever’s ahead.”
His comments about grandkids come after Maggie, a social correspondent for the game show, was spotted showing PDA with McCall in March.
Maggie, 29, and the “White Collar” actor, 48, were seen kissing and holding hands while enjoying a romantic stroll in Los Angeles at the time. They also have shown love to each other on social media.

McCall was previously engaged to Jennifer Love Hewitt in 2007 and Alessandra Mastronardi in 2021.
Pat also told his daughter that he was ready for new adventures after hosting “Wheel” for more than four decades.
“I’ve always said to you, you’ve heard me say this dozens of times: I’d rather leave a couple years too early than a couple of years too late,” he said.

His final episode, which is also the Season 41 finale, airs this Friday.
“This was announced a long time ago, almost a year ago. So I’ve had time to sort of get used to it,” he said in the interview. “And it’s been a little bit wistful and all that, but I’m enjoying it and taking it all in and reflecting on the great run.”
Pat revealed he would be exiting the show at the end of Season 41. ABC via Getty Images “We became part of the popular culture. And more importantly, we became part of people’s lives. And that’s been awfully gratifying,” he told his daughter. maggiesajak/INstagram
Pat said the series was “more than a popular show” to him during his historic run.
“We became part of the popular culture. And more importantly, we became part of people’s lives. And that’s been awfully gratifying,” he shared.
