Despite assurances from the actor and his agents that, at 79 years old, he is in great shape and still able to work at full capacity, his show was cancelled after several seasons. The latest photos of the actor have his fans worried.

At the beginning of this summer, the American  TV network announced that it was ending the production of the series “Blue Bloods” after 14 years on the air. It is the story of a family with a long tradition in law enforcement, with Tom Selleck portraying the character of Frank Reagan, the chief of the New York Police Department. Unfortunately, this is the end of the production’s long journey.

The actor’s agents frequently publish statements stating that Tom is “fit and vigorous” and enjoys “excellent health.” However, the paparazzi recently took photos of him that fans found concerning vertical scars on both knees. The Daily Mail quickly offered a possible explanation: Tom Selleck likely underwent knee replacement surgery.

Tom Selleck’s legendary roles

Born in 1945, the actor gained the most popularity thanks to the series “Magnum, P.I.”, which aired from 1980-1988. The show’s character, Thomas Magnum (Selleck), is a former intelligence officer now working as the head of security at millionaire Robin Masters’ estate. Since the owner is seldom home, Magnum uses his property (including the famous red Ferrari 308 GTS) while working as a private investigator. This often leads to conflicts with the estate’s manager, Englishman Jonathan Higgins III (played by John Hillerman).

In 1987, Tom Selleck starred in the family comedy “Three Men and a Baby”, where three bachelors’ lives are turned upside down when an infant girl is left on their doorstep, leading to chaos for the inexperienced “dads.” The comedy made multiple times its budget in theatres.

Younger viewers rediscovered Selleck in the 1990s when he guest-starred in the series “Friends”. He played Dr. Richard Burke, an ophthalmologist who has a romance with Monica Geller (Courtney Cox).
