‘Blue Bloods’ Cast: Do They Get Along? See What the Stars Say

Working in TV and film is challenging enough without constantly being paired with new co-stars, leading to potential conflicts or great friendships. In 2010, when the cast of Blue Bloods began their journey, the actors portraying the Reagan family were virtual strangers. Fourteen years later, the significant question remains: have they grown closer, or is their affection restricted to their on-screen personas?

It’s intriguing to observe how different on-screen chemistry can be from real-life relationships. For instance, a TV couple deeply in love might not be close at all in reality. As audiences tune in every Friday night for the Reagan family dinner on Blue Bloods, many wonder if the cast genuinely gets along. Find out what the cast has revealed about their off-screen dynamics and whether they are as close-knit as they appear.

The Reagan family is famous for their Sunday night dinners, where they catch up on each other’s lives. This table has expanded over the seasons, welcoming new members into their tight-knit clan. But does this dynamic extend to real life? Indeed, the cast of Blue Bloods is almost like a family themselves. They share dance challenges on Instagram and capture sweet moments together, showing their camaraderie off-screen.

While Donnie Wahlberg plays Tom Selleck’s son on the series, their real-life bond mirrors that relationship closely. Wahlberg recounted that when they first started working, Selleck would call him by his name, but now he affectionately says, “Oh, hey, son, how are you doing today?” Wahlberg reciprocates by calling Selleck “dad.” Selleck praised his on-screen son, stating, “Donny’s a talented man and actor, and he brings that to directing too, I can already see that.” Their powerful on-screen and off-screen father-son dynamic shines through in the series. Wahlberg also shared a heartfelt birthday post for Selleck, expressing, “Happy Birthday to my dear friend and TV dad — the one and only — Tom Selleck! Love you, Dad!”

Partners Janko (Vanessa Ray) and Jamie (Will Estes) share a married life on the show and a close friendship in real life. Ray expressed her admiration for Estes on Instagram, writing, “What can I say? I adore my partner @willestes101. He’s one of the best people I know and he’s put up with me for 7 years…” Estes showed his appreciation for Ray too, saying, “Across from the stunning @vrayskull. So much of my life has been working with Vanessa the last few years. Grateful indeed.”

Danny (Wahlberg) and Baez (Marisa Ramirez) are long-time partners on the show and best friends behind the scenes. Ramirez confirmed this bond in a post, stating, “Happy Birthday to my best girlfriend, my partner in solving crime, and to the only other person in the world besides my 7-year-old that I make this weird face with! Miss you! Enjoy! You deserve all the happiness and joy in the world!”

Anyone who watches Blue Bloods has seen how enjoyable Reagan family dinners appear, filled with jokes and laughter. Interestingly, these dinners are just as entertaining for the actual cast. Wahlberg shared, “The Reagans are fortunate to be together on Sundays, to be safe, to have made it through another week of a very dangerous job, and the cast is reminded of how fortunate we are as actors.” He continued, “It’s an incredible blessing to have that dinner scene as a check-in every week, much like the Reagans do, fictionally. For us to have that in real life, it’s a pretty spectacular thing.”

While working in the entertainment industry can bring its challenges, the bond shared by the Blue Bloods cast, both on and off-screen, shows that sometimes those professional relationships can develop into genuine friendships. They appear to share a special connection that fans love to see, both during the iconic family dinners and in their everyday interactions.
