After eight seasons on Blue Bloods, you’d think Tom Selleck might be ready to retire from the grueling filming schedule of a CBS drama. But the icon is showing no signs of slowing down! One reason the actor’s still going more than 50 years in Hollywood is probably the strong support system he’s built at home. The Magnum, P.I. star found true love with his wife, Jillie Mack, and they’ve created a lovely family and life together. If you thought his on-screen Blue Bloods brood was tightknit, just wait until you meet the real deal! Read on to learn more about Tom and his personal life through the years.
