Heather Foster, once a familiar face on local news, proved she still knows how to command a stage—this time, on Wheel of Fortune. The former news anchor, who left her career to focus on raising her children, walked away with an impressive cash prize and a dream vacation on the Thursday, February 20 episode of the popular game show.
Foster, a Wisconsin native, took a break from her usual routine of visiting museums and libraries with her kids to compete for a shot at big winnings. When she does find rare moments of quiet, she admits she enjoys sitting in her car in complete silence—something many parents can surely relate to. Before dedicating herself full-time to her family, Foster was an anchor for NewsChannel 7 from 2015 to 2021.
