Selleck’s Health Getting Worse, What’s Going On?

After playing such larger-than-life characters on both the big and small screen, Tom Selleck is currently dealing with a health crisis that’s much more dramatic in real life than any of his roles have ever been, and a lot of fans worry about the actor.

It turns out, he is currently undergoing physical therapy, as the legendary actor struggles to walk. An inside source recently dished to Closer: “He has those scars on his knees, which would indicate he’s had surgery on them recently. But clearly, it’s not going so well and taking a long time to heal.”

The source continued, saying: “He’s got specialists helping, and he’s doing his rehabilitation at the gym where he putters around, and it’s slow going. The fact remains he’s unsteady on his feet and has trouble walking unassisted.”

Blue Bloods Cancelation To Blame For Poor Health?

Indeed, many fans were heartbroken when Blue Bloods got the ax. For more than a decade, viewers have been following this show, along with several generations of the fictional Reagan family.

According to another source, Tom Selleck took that cancelation really hard, too, and, in some ways, the show getting the boot may be to blame for the health predicament he is currently in.

The source said: “These people were family to him, and they went out for lots of fancy meals toward the end. He’s been continuing that trend, judging by the looks of him! He needs to shed pounds. Anyone can see that, but it’s not going to be easy. Clearly, this forced retirement hasn’t done him much good!”

Certainly, while Tom Selleck is getting some help, it’s clear that, at nearly 80, the iconic actor still has a ways to go before he is back on track.
