Tom is said to have moved back to his California ranch with his wife Jillie after 14 years of travelling to and from the East Coast to film the show, which was suddenly pulled by CBS bosses late last year.

She made no secret of her disappointment at the end of Blue Bloods, and after show bosses announced last year that they would stop filming, she said she hoped they would “come to their senses”.

Although filming on the show has wrapped, fans can still look forward to seeing the actor at the conclusion of its 14th and final season in October.

Tom won legions of fans for his role as Frank Reagan on Blue Bloods, a fictional New York City police commissioner.

She has starred alongside Donnie Wahlberg, Bridget Moynahan and Will Estes since September 2010, and said that when the show was cancelled, fans were sure to react with fury to the decision.

“CBS will find that a lot of people are not ready to say goodbye,” he said at the time.

“The show is more popular than ever and I think (the numbers) will only increase with the interest it generates this year. We haven’t run out of ideas.”
