“I always wrap presents,” the game show personality said. “On Christmas Eve, we get to open one gift, and then we have to wait for Christmas Day to open the rest of them. It’s always been that way.”
She added, “Christmas is special for everyone, especially for family and I don’t care what age you are, it’s fun.”

White gushed that Donaldson is “the male version of me.”

After more than a decade together, White revealed the secret to her lasting relationship.
