He has portrayed so many serious characters, but at home, Tom Selleck is a big softie with his family! The actor is a father to kids Kevin and Hannah and a doting husband to wife Jillie Mack. Tom’s daughter did not follow his Hollywood path. Instead, she established an equestrian career.
Hannah was born on December 16, 1988, one year after Tom and Jillie married. He adopted Kevin during his marriage to his first wife, Jacqueline Ray, which lasted from 1971 to 1982.
Tom’s Blue Bloods character, Frank Reagan, is also a dad whose personality traits draw from Tom’s personal life.
“You never stop being a dad even though your kids are grown,” Tom reflected on his character during a September 2018 interview with Parade, adding, “There aren’t a lot of good, strong, examples of patriarchs trying to do the right thing on television. So, I think that performs a certain function; fathers are important.”
