Tom Selleck, 80, Seen Struggling with Health Amid Fast-Food Habit After Blue Bloods Ends
Tom Selleck was recently spotted at a McDonaldβs drive-through near his California ranch on June 2, looking noticeably bloated and fatigued, sources told Globe Magazine. Friends reveal that since Blue Bloods wrapped up last year, Selleckβs fast-food consumption has worsened β putting his health at serious risk.
Weight Gain and Health Concerns
The Magnum, P.I. star, who once weighed around 195 pounds at his peak, is now estimated by friends to have ballooned to approximately 350 pounds. An insider shared that chronic pain and immobility have plagued Selleck for years, driving his growing dependence on greasy burgers, salty fries, and sugary sodas.

While his wife Jillie Mack reportedly bans him from drive-throughs when sheβs nearby, he often reverts to old habits when alone.
Family Intervention Attempts
Jillie has repeatedly urged him to change his lifestyle, but Selleck increasingly retreats into isolation at his ranch, venturing out only for quick fast-food runs or doctor visits. Loved ones worry that his growing weight gain is accompanied by deepening isolation and despair.
Expert Warnings
Obesity expert Dr. Stuart Fischer, who has not treated Selleck personally, estimates the actor weighs over 300 pounds and warns of serious health dangers. He explains that this level of obesity often results in chronic conditions requiring medication and carries a high risk of fatal consequences if lifestyle changes are not made.

Following the end of Blue Bloods after 14 seasons, insiders say Selleck has lost the routine and sense of purpose that the show provided. This shift reportedly intensified his isolation and fast-food dependency. Friends express growing concern that without intervention, his downward health spiral may accelerate.
