Vanessa Ray Shares Skincare Routine While Watching a Heartwarming Jamko Moment

Vanessa Ray, best known for her role as Eddie Reagan on Blue Bloods, recently gave fans a glimpse into her nighttime self-care ritual—and her emotional side—through a sweet Instagram post. On May 14, Ray shared a video of herself starting a new skincare routine while watching a touching Jamko (Jamie and Eddie) scene from a recent episode.

In the Blue Bloods episode titled “The New You,” Eddie and Jamie (played by Will Estes) navigate a relationship bump centered on the topic of love languages. Eddie wants Jamie to take a love language quiz with her, but he resists the idea. Frustrated, Eddie explains that she simply wants to improve their communication.

Although Jamie remains skeptical, Eddie later uses the concept to help another couple in conflict. By the end of the episode, Jamie surprises Eddie with a heartfelt gesture: he prepares dinner, brings her flowers, gives her compliments, massages her shoulders, and invites her for a walk in Central Park—all five gestures representing each of the five love languages (words of affirmation, acts of service, receiving gifts, quality time, and physical touch). Eddie quickly realizes what he’s doing, and the two reconcile with a hug.

Ray’s Instagram video shows her pausing to watch that very scene, clearly touched by the characters’ emotional growth. She captioned the post:

“How is everyone preparing for tonight’s season finale of @bluebloods_cbs? For the first time in my life, I was attempting to START a ‘skincare routine.’ A significant step forward in my personal development.

But…I needed to catch up on last week’s #bluebloods in order to be prepared. The DRAMA with #jamko!”

She then shared her skincare steps with fans:

• Cleanser: Alma Purifying Cleanser
• Serum: Dr. Barbara Sturm’s Serum
• Night Oil: Sunday Riley’s Luna Sleeping Night Oil
• Eye Cream: Tata Harper Skincare’s Restorative Eye Cream

As Jamko fans swooned over the couple’s sweet reconciliation, Ray’s followers also praised her for the relatable blend of self-care and TV bingeing. Looks like Blue Bloods and glowing skin go hand in hand!

Bridget Moynahan Hints at Blue Bloods Reunion: “I Miss Them Daily”

Bridget Moynahan is giving fans a glimmer of hope for a Blue Bloods reunion. In a recent interview with TVLine Spotlight, the 53-year-old actress responded enthusiastically to the idea of getting the Reagan family back together. “Yeah, why not,” she said, before joking, “But we can’t have that many years [away]!”

Though the series officially ended in November 2023 after 14 seasons, Blue Bloods remained a ratings powerhouse with a fiercely loyal fanbase. Moynahan expressed frustration with CBS’ decision to cancel the show: “I don’t quite understand it… We had tremendous ratings and terrific tales with solid values that appealed to audiences.”

Looking back on the show’s legacy, she described the deep connection she shares with the cast, calling them a “family on and off the screen.” She revealed she still stays in touch with co-stars Donnie Wahlberg and Vanessa Ray, saying, “We’re still celebrating birthdays and having fun out there. I miss them daily.”

Bridget also shared a sweet behind-the-scenes moment—crediting herself with reuniting Donnie with his now-wife Jenny McCarthy, calling herself a “good doobie” for her matchmaking skills.

While Blue Bloods may have ended, Moynahan’s heartfelt words—and her openness to a reunion—have reignited hope for fans eager to see the Reagan family gather around the dinner table one more time.

When bearded guys look up:
“Whoa… is that my ex watching me from above?”

Darth Vader returns. Still making those creepy breathing sounds?
“Wait—does he still come with the heavy breathing package?”

What secret did this palm tree uncover?
“Okay… what exactly did this palm tree just witness?”

Blue Bloods Stars Agree: Tom Selleck Is the Heart of the Show

According to Blue Bloods stars Vanessa Ray and Will Estes, the key to the show’s lasting success is simple: Tom Selleck.

Selleck’s portrayal of NYPD Commissioner Frank Reagan has anchored the CBS hit since its 2010 debut. His strong, principled leadership—both on-screen and off—has made him the undeniable backbone of the series. While the show follows multiple members of the Reagan family working across the criminal justice system, it’s Frank who remains the emotional and moral core, especially during the iconic family dinner scenes that highlight the show’s themes of loyalty, duty, and family.

In an interview with WFSB 3, reflecting on Season 9, Estes didn’t hesitate when asked what keeps fans coming back: “Tom Selleck,” he said immediately. Ray agreed with a laugh, adding that his presence shapes the tone of the entire series.

Estes praised Selleck’s deep commitment to the role and the production. “On and off the set, Tom is our leader,” he shared. “He’s always prepared and has an incredible grasp of character and story.” Despite his status as a TV legend, Selleck remains focused entirely on the work, a quality his co-stars deeply respect.

Ray and Estes both credit Selleck with raising the bar on set—not just through his acting, but through the lessons they’ve learned from watching him work. His decades of experience and professionalism have become a quiet force behind Blue Bloods’ continued popularity.

Simply put, Tom Selleck isn’t just a star of Blue Bloods—he is Blue Bloods.

Tom Selleck Confirms New Jesse Stone Film in the Works

Tom Selleck has officially announced that development is underway for the next installment in the Jesse Stone film series. Teaming up once again with longtime writing partner Michael Brandman, Selleck revealed they’re actively working on a new script.

While production has faced some delays and no filming date or casting details have been finalized, discussions with potential distributors are currently ongoing. Selleck remains optimistic and excited to return to the role that fans have come to love.

More updates are expected soon—Jesse Stone is far from finished.

Why Blue Bloods Is Still TV’s Gold‑Standard Cop Drama

Blue Bloods is more than another police procedural—it’s a masterclass in blending crime, family, and morality. Here’s why the series stands tall as the best cop show on television.

1. A Family at the Heart of Every Case
   Centering on the multi‑generational Reagan clan—from Commissioner Frank down to beat cop Jamie—the show weaves deep emotional stakes into every investigation. Sunday dinners double as moral debates, therapy sessions, and battlegrounds for clashing values.
2. Tom Selleck’s Commanding Gravitas
   With his trademark mustache and quiet authority, Tom Selleck is Frank Reagan. He sets the gold standard for TV police commissioners, grounding the series in integrity and strength.
3. Ethics Over Explosions
   Forget flashy car chases. Each storyline forces characters—and viewers—to wrestle with right and wrong in a gray world, challenging the conscience without preaching.
4. Authentic Police Work
   Beyond the drama, the show dives into paperwork, policies, and politics that shape modern law enforcement. Street patrols, precinct meetings, and chain‑of‑command nuances all feel lived‑in and real.
5. Dynamic Women on the Front Line
   ADA Erin Reagan (Bridget Moynahan), Detective Maria Baez (Marisa Ramirez), and Officer Eddie Janko (Vanessa Ray) aren’t sidekicks—they’re leaders, each bringing intelligence, empathy, and grit.
6. Legendary Sunday Dinners
   No series makes family meals this pivotal. Around the table, tough questions get asked, bonds get tested, and love ultimately wins.
7. Tackling Tough Topics
   The show confronts police brutality, corruption, and racial profiling while honoring officers striving to do good. It’s honest, timely, and deeply human.
8. Consistency Without Compromise
   After 14 seasons, Blue Bloods never lost steam or betrayed its core values—rare longevity in today’s TV landscape.
9. Cast Chemistry That Feels Like Family
   From Donnie Wahlberg’s fiery Danny to Will Estes’s steady Jamie, the actors’ natural rapport convinces you they’re truly related.
10. A Story of Legacy
    At its core, the series explores duty, honor, and what we leave behind. It’s crime drama with a beating heart—and a badge.

Bonus: The Show Never Lost Its Soul
In an era overrun with cynicism and anti‑heroes, Blue Bloods remains hopeful, reminding us that family matters, service counts, and standing up for what’s right is always worthwhile.

Ben Affleck Lets Loose in New Dunkin’ Commercial—and Brings Donnie Wahlberg Along for the Ride

Ben Affleck is trading his usual brooding roles for belly laughs in his latest Dunkin’ commercial—and fans are loving every second of it.

Known for serious turns in films like Gone Girl and Argo, Affleck shows off his funnier side in a fresh batch of Dunkin’ ads. The Oscar winner has become a familiar face in the brand’s campaigns, from taking coffee orders in a drive-thru to embracing full-on comedic chaos. At this point, he might want to add “Dunkin’ Employee” to his résumé—right above “Batman.”

This time around, he’s joined by a fellow Massachusetts icon: Donnie Wahlberg, New Kids on the Block alum and Blue Bloods star, who plays the role of the brutally honest best friend. In the commercial, Ben breaks into a hilariously awkward dance to promote a $6 Dunkin’ breakfast deal. Donnie, unimpressed, deadpans, “Don’t do that again.” When Ben follows up with, “Think I got a future, though?” Donnie fires back, “I just saved your future.”

Fans were quick to flood the comments with praise:
“We all need a friend like Donnie,”
“I love seeing this side of Ben,”
and “The best part is you can tell it’s totally unscripted!”
One viewer summed it up best: “The beauty of these commercials is how much fun they’re having. You can see Ben enjoying the ridiculousness—and so are we.”

With Dunkin’ rooted in Massachusetts pride, pairing Affleck and Wahlberg was a no-brainer. But the fun didn’t stop there. As a surprise follow-up, Dunkin’ dropped another laugh-out-loud clip featuring Succession star Jeremy Strong as none other than Paul Revere, adding even more local flavor (and absurdity) to the mix.

Looks like Dunkin’ isn’t just serving coffee—it’s serving comedy gold.

Tom Selleck’s Health Spirals: Friends Fear Blue Bloods Star Is Eating Himself to Death

Concerns are growing for beloved Blue Bloods star Tom Selleck as sources close to the 79-year-old actor fear he’s on a dangerous downward spiral — fueled by a worsening food addiction and mounting health issues.

RadarOnline.com has learned that friends are sounding the alarm after Selleck was spotted near his Ojai, California ranch in late May, appearing shockingly bloated, disheveled, and dazed. “It’s like watching a trainwreck in slow motion,” one friend said. “He looks smashed and out of it — and the last thing he should be doing is posing happily in front of greasy burgers.”

Photos show the former Magnum, P.I. icon sporting a noticeably large belly, sparking fears that he’s lost control of his health. Insiders estimate the 6-foot-4 actor has gained more than 100 pounds since his heartthrob days — now tipping the scales at a staggering 285 pounds.

“He knows the health risks that come with his weight. That’s what makes this all the more disturbing,” said a source. “He’s stubborn and refuses to admit he needs help — even when his life could depend on it.”

Selleck’s wife, Jillie Mack, 67, has reportedly pleaded with him to eat healthier, but he continues to ignore her concerns, sources said. Those close to the actor also claim he’s dealing with serious medical issues, including arthritis, and is using steroid-based medications to manage pain and inflammation.

“Drugs like prednisone can increase appetite and cause weight gain,” a source explained. “But instead of controlling it, Tom seems to have turned to food for comfort — and it’s only making things worse.”

The recent cancellation of Blue Bloods after a 14-season run has only deepened the crisis, leaving the star with a painful sense of isolation. “The show gave him structure and purpose,” said one insider. “Now, he just sits around thinking about food. It’s heartbreaking.”

Friends fear if something doesn’t change soon, the outcome could be fatal. “He doesn’t seem to care anymore — and that’s the saddest part,” one source shared. “If he keeps going like this, the consequences could be deadly.”

After 293 Episodes, the Reagan Family Prepares to Say Goodbye — But Not By Choice

When Blue Bloods first premiered in 2010, its future was far from guaranteed. “It was the last pilot CBS picked up,” Tom Selleck recalls, “but also the highest testing.” Legendary producer Leonard Goldberg fought to get it greenlit, and the partnership between Goldberg and Selleck gave the show its first real shot. “Tom and Leonard were two titans,” Donnie Wahlberg says. “Their reputations gave the show a chance.”

Wahlberg was on a New Kids on the Block cruise when he got the call to fly to New York for CBS’s upfronts. The network gave the new series the dreaded 10 p.m. Friday night slot—a time slot where shows usually went to die. But Blue Bloods beat the odds and dominated the night for 15 years.

From the very beginning, the cast knew this show was different. Though the pilot was filmed in Toronto, relocating to New York felt right. “The Reagans belonged there,” they agreed. For over a decade, Selleck commuted from Los Angeles every two weeks, driven by his commitment to the show—and to the now-iconic weekly family dinner scenes. “Those dinners made it worth it,” he says.

But now, after 293 episodes, the Reagans are preparing to say farewell—not because the cast is ready, but because CBS has decided Season 14 will be the last. The finale will air in two parts, concluding on December 13. Originally, the network ordered just 10 episodes, but Selleck pushed for a fuller sendoff and convinced them to add eight more.

A Legacy Built on Values

When Selleck first read the pilot script, he was worried the family dinner scenes would be cut. Goldberg promised they wouldn’t—and kept that promise.

Selleck also fought to keep the show grounded. The original concept had Police Commissioner Frank Reagan leading operations from a green screen-filled control room. “That’s ridiculous,” Selleck said—and his insistence on realism changed everything.

“I was scared to death at the start,” Selleck admits. A last-minute suggestion to adopt a New York accent rattled him, but he stuck to his instincts. His portrayal of Frank Reagan became the moral anchor of the show, even when characters clashed politically or personally. “They didn’t always agree, but there was always respect,” Selleck reflects. “Frank and I might not vote the same way—and that’s a good thing.”

An Ending That Still Feels Unreal

Though filming wrapped five months ago, the finality hasn’t fully hit the cast. The last scene filmed was a funeral, but the real emotional gut punch came during the final family dinner. When the director called “That’s a wrap,” the cast lingered. Then, unexpectedly, Selleck recited Edna St. Vincent Millay’s Love Is Not All.

“Tom started saying it, and literally, my life passed before my eyes,” Wahlberg said through tears. “This scrappy kid from a big family, watching him on TV, now sitting beside him in that moment—it was magic.”

Wahlberg says playing Danny Reagan changed him. “Danny’s loyalty to family made me think. I live in a different state than my siblings—maybe I need to fly home more, show up for things like Thanksgiving.”

He’s keeping busy—NKOTB just announced a 2025 Las Vegas residency—but he still hopes for a miracle. “I keep waiting for someone from Blue Bloods to chase me down and say, ‘Wait—one more season!’”

What’s Next?

Selleck isn’t retiring anytime soon. “I’ve got a mortgage. I’ve got a ranch. And I love the work,” he says with a smile. He’s working on another Jesse Stone movie and even entertained a pitch about a Blue Bloods spinoff where Frank retires and runs a small-town police force. “That’s good,” he said, “but I’m writing Jesse again.”

As for a spinoff without the full Reagan family? Wahlberg’s not so sure. “Where’s the family going to be? That’s the heart of the show.”

For now, the cast is moving forward—but still holding onto the magic of what they built. And maybe, just maybe, they’ll find their way back to the Reagan dinner table one more time.
