Vanna White’s ‘H-O-T’ son Nikko, 30, sends internet into a frenzy: ‘Where have you been hiding [him]?’

Vanna White sent fans into a frenzy over a cooking video with her “H-O-T” son, Nikko Santo Pietro.

The “Wheel of Fortune” star, 67, took to Instagram Monday to share a video of herself and the 30-year-old whipping up a family recipe.

“I’m not a good cook,” the matriarch shared while standing in her kitchen. “But fortunately my son, Nikko, is. So he’s going to make one of my favorite dishes. We call it Uncle Roy’s Chicken.

Pietro — who wore a tight white T-shirt and jeans — was seen in the clip peeling ginger and chopping onion, while White cleaned up after him.

The real estate agent thoroughly walked viewers through the cooking process, and the TV personality eventually helped by adding white wine to the chicken.

Pietro was left speechless by the finished product, joking that it tasted “terrible,” as he walked out of the frame.

White then took a bite of the plate, appearing satisfied while she hugged and thanked her son.

“In celebration of Fabulous Food Week, Nikko and I are whipping up Uncle Roy’s Chicken. YUM! 😋,” she captioned the clip.

Fans, meanwhile, were more in awe of Pietro’s good looks than the recipe, as one person wrote in the comments, “Vanna where have you been hiding Nikko ? He’s GORGEOUS 😍.”

“Is son on the menu too 👀 errr I mean great video!!” another quipped, as a third added, “If your son is free, my daughter is also. Lol they can cook together.”

“My next three letters are H-O-T!” a fourth chimed in.

White shares Nikko and 27-year-old daughter Gigi with her ex-husband, George Pietro, to whom she was wed from 1990 to 2002.

According to Nikko’s LinkedIn page, he shares a love of cooking with his father, who owned Santo Pietro’s and Sushi Ko in Los Angeles.

He currently works as a real estate agent at Mauricio Umansky’s company, The Agency, where he’s been employed since last October.

When he isn’t working, the businessman enjoys hosting poetry nights, “bringing people together,”  “playing the piano, reading, and prioritizing restful sleep.”
