Nikko, the "heartthrob" son of Vanna White, responds to "thirsty" remarks from a viral video.

Nikko Santo Pietro, Vanna White's son, created a viral moment in the kitchen with his mom, causing fans to go wild over the "heartthrob."

An Instagram video featuring Nikko and White cooking a chicken dish in celebration of Fabulous Food Week on "Wheel of Fortune" was posted last week.

Nikko was praised for his good looks by fans, who also asked about his romantic life.

"Where have you been hiding, Nikko? He's GORGEOUS," one person wrote.

Another simply said, "Your son is hot!!!"

In an interview with Entertainment Tonight, Nikko stated that the attention was "complimentary."

He stated that he received an outpouring of kind comments from her fans, with many interesting things being said.

Nikko, a 30-year-old real estate agent who works with Mauricio Umansky, ex-husband of "Real Housewives of Beverly Hills" star Kyle Richards, stated, "I have always enjoyed being in front of the camera and putting in a lot of effort into my social media. This is a significant aspect of my work, and it feels natural and fulfilling."

But the attention isn’t going to his head.

He stated that people view him as a heartthrob and are eager for him, but he enjoys it while also recognizing the importance of focusing on meaningful things in life, such as charity work and hard work.

White added, "He’s such a good kid!"

She continued, "I always taught both of my children that they have to work hard to get things, as it's not just given to them. And he's doing it."

Gigi, a daughter shared by White and her ex-husband, George Santo Pietro, is a restaurant owner.

Nikko has confirmed that he is in a relationship and not looking for love via DMs.

He told ET that his girlfriend is an amazing singer-songwriter who wrote a song about him. They've been together for a year and she's an absolute sweetheart.

Easae, his girlfriend, had already detected the heartthrob thing before America did, as she titled a song about him "Karaoke."

She has both her mother's approval and White's praise, with White describing her as "sweet," "down-to-earth," "loving," and "giving."

Nikko's growing popularity may lead to additional TV spots.

White expressed his desire to appear on "Wheel of Fortune" when asked, noting that Maggie Sajak, Pat Sajak's daughter, has frequently filled in for him on the show and also worked as the show's social media correspondent since 2021.

Nikko stated that although he was unsure about his skills in playing the game, he would still like to participate in some capacity.

Nikko has made several appearances on the show, including during her pregnancy and various special occasions such as holiday episodes.

"Nikkos stated that he loves real estate and believes it is a great foundation for his career. He views it as an entrepreneurial venture, with multiple deals a year, allowing him to seed his projects and hire social media managers. He has a professionally hosted website and plans to continue growing his real estate business. However, he also stated that entertainment is at his core and fuels his passion."

He's also considering following in his father's footsteps, as he says, "My father is a restaurateur, and he had an iconic restaurant here in Los Angeles. There is a part of me that would want to potentially continue that legacy."

His objective is to increase his on-screen presence, strengthen his personal brand, and ultimately, contribute to the betterment of his audience through valuable content.
