Tom Selleck’s 80th Birthday Honors Iconic ‘Blue Bloods’ Tradition!

Tom Selleck Reflects on Turning 80 and Life After Blue Bloods

As Blue Bloods wraps up its remarkable 15-year run, Tom Selleck, the man behind Commissioner Frank Reagan, has another significant milestone on the horizon—his 80th birthday.

The legendary actor, known for his quiet demeanor and private lifestyle, will celebrate his big day on Wednesday, January 29. In a recent interview with Parade, Selleck opened up about saying goodbye to the iconic series, life on his California ranch, and how he plans to mark this milestone birthday.


A Quiet Celebration Fit for Frank Reagan

When asked about his plans for his 80th birthday, Selleck’s response mirrored the humility and simplicity fans have come to associate with both the actor and his Blue Bloods character.

“None whatsoever,” he admitted. “I’m trying not to count. I stopped celebrating birthdays a while back. I intend to keep working.”

Still, Selleck hinted at a low-key gathering with his closest loved ones. “I’ll probably have dinner with maybe my brother and my sister and Jillie, just go out to dinner, kind of be quiet and not make a big deal of it.”

It’s a plan that would make Frank Reagan proud—family-centered, understated, and full of heart.


Life on the Ranch with Family

Since stepping away from the Blue Bloods set, Selleck has been spending his days on his sprawling 65-acre avocado ranch in California. Life there is quiet but fulfilling, shared with his wife, Jillie Mack, and their daughter, Hannah Selleck, a professional equestrian.

Selleck described his ranch days as filled with simple joys, family time, and a deep connection to nature. “Christmas is something for Jillie and Hannah and me, really,” he explained. “Maybe we go to one of my brothers’ or my sister’s house for a while, but mainly it’s family time just for us.”


Looking Back on Blue Bloods

As Blue Bloods concluded its run, Selleck reflected on the legacy of the Reagan family and the tradition of their famous dinner scenes, which became a hallmark of the show. From the series premiere in 2010 to the emotional finale in 2024, those family dinners symbolized the heart of the series—a close-knit family navigating life together.

Though the show has ended, Selleck seems content with his next chapter, whether it’s tending to his ranch or simply spending quiet evenings with family.


A Legacy That Lives On

At 80, Tom Selleck remains an icon of Hollywood, known for his humility, talent, and ability to create characters that resonate deeply with audiences. As he celebrates this milestone, it’s clear that he values the same things off-screen as his characters do on-screen—family, tradition, and staying true to oneself.
