Inside the Real-Life Bond of the Blue Bloods Cast: What They Say About Each Other

Working in TV and film is hard enough without having to constantly be paired up with new co-stars that you may or may not get along with. In 2010, when the cast of Blue Bloods began working together, the real-life people that made up the Reagan family were virtually strangers. But 14 years later, are they closer than ever, or does the Blue Bloods cast save their love strictly for the screen?

It’s interesting to see one thing on-screen and an entirely different situation behind-the-scenes, a perfect example being when a TV couple deeply in love is not close at all in real life. So, when audiences tune in every Friday night for a Reagan family dinner, everyone is wondering: does the Blue Bloods cast get along? Find out what the cast has said about each other and whether they are as close-knit as they seem.
