Family Bonding on the Set of Blue Bloods
Donnie Wahlberg’s Initial Doubts
When starting on the show Blue Bloods, Donnie Wahlberg had some serious doubts about the possibility of forming a family with his on-screen father, Tom Selleck. Wahlberg was taken aback by the striking differences in appearance between himself and Selleck, making it hard to believe they could portray a father-son relationship realistically.
He even feared that his time on the show would be short-lived due to these appearance discrepancies. However, in the world of television, acting skills often outweigh physical resemblance, giving Wahlberg the opportunity to prove himself in the role of Danny Reagan.
The Unexpected Family Connection
Despite his initial reservations, Wahlberg soon discovered that the bond between him and Selleck extended beyond the screen.
After working together for fourteen years on Blue Bloods, Wahlberg and Selleck developed a close relationship akin to that of a real father and son. Wahlberg revealed that they had become so close that they even referred to each other as "Dad" and "son" off-camera, showcasing the true family-like connection they had built over the years.
