Tom Selleck Spotted in Public for 1st Time Since ‘Blue Bloods’ Cancellation With Apparent Knee Surgery Scars
Thousand Oaks, California – In a rare public appearance, Tom Selleck, the beloved actor known for his role as New York City Police Commissioner Frank Reagan on the long-running series "Blue Bloods," was spotted in Thousand Oaks, California, displaying apparent knee surgery scars. The 79-year-old actor, who recently wrapped up filming the 14th season of "Blue Bloods," was seen leaving a gym on July 17, sporting a black T-shirt and black shorts, with noticeable scars on his knees.
Photos obtained by In Touch and shared on July 29 show Selleck walking to his car, with the outing also captured on video. Following his gym session, the actor was seen visiting a fast-food restaurant to grab a beverage before driving off.
Selleck's public appearance comes shortly after the cancellation of "Blue Bloods," a series he passionately advocated to continue. In an interview with Town & Country in May, Selleck expressed his disappointment over the show's termination, highlighting its success and the legacy it left for the cast and crew. "I still hold out hope that CBS will come to their senses," he said, emphasizing the show's high ratings and popularity.
Despite the end of "Blue Bloods," sources close to Selleck indicate that he is not slowing down. An insider revealed to Closer that the actor, known for his roles in "Magnum, P.I." and other notable series, is actively involved in maintaining his 63-acre ranch in Ventura County, California, alongside his wife, Jillie Mack. "Instead of enjoying his time off, he’s working himself into a sweat doing repairs on the house, tending to the land, and pitching himself into all sorts of postures a guy his age and size shouldn’t do," the source detailed.
Selleck's dedication to his ranch, which he humorously referred to as a "financial drain" during a CBS Mornings interview in May, showcases his commitment to his lifestyle and property. Despite the challenges, Selleck remains hopeful about his future projects and the potential for "Blue Bloods" to find new life, should CBS reconsider its decision.
As fans continue to rally behind the iconic actor, Selleck's recent public appearance not only highlights his ongoing recovery from knee surgery but also his resilience and dedication to his craft and personal life.
