Tom Selleck has lived his entire life without ever having to send an email or text message, and we are in awe.
The actor boasts a huge career in Hollywood, starring in Blue Bloods, Magnum PI and an unforgettable stint in Friends.
However, shedding light on his upcoming memoir, You Never Know, the 79-year-old explained that he mostly keeps away from technology.
Instead, his wife Jillie Mack – who he married in 1987 – will send messages on his behalf, while his secretary also responds to emails.
‘Occasionally I’ve looked up my name,’ he told People Magazine. ‘That started really with the book, but I’ve never sent my own email. I had a secretary. I’ve never texted anybody.
‘I have a certain luxury where I probably couldn’t survive otherwise.

‘But I don’t know. I have a hard time writing things down, which is weird for a guy who’s pushing a book.’
Speaking to the outlet, Tom explained that he tends to enjoy a calm environment at home, away from various film sets, and isn’t a huge TV watcher – despite carving out a career on our screens.
Instead, he relishes time in nature and watching flowers bloom when he has some downtime – which, coupled with an email-free lifestyle, sounds pretty perfect.
‘A cigar and a glass of whisky is a nice way to end the day,’ he added. ‘I’ve had a very good life, a very lucky life. I don’t know if it’s what I figured I’d be doing, but it’s with a lot of gratitude.’

Thankfully, Tom will be able to spend time with his favorite flowers very soon as his time on Blue Bloods is officially coming to an end.
The police procedural drama has been axed after 14 years, with the final episodes due to air later this year.
In November, the show’s official Twitter account confirmed the news in a tweet that read: ‘Join us for the final season of #BlueBloods Season 14, airing in TWO parts: February 2024 and Fall 2024 on @CBS and @paramountplus.’
Tom, who first shot to fame in Magnum PI, lead the way in the hit show – which premiered on CBS in 2010 – with his role playing New York City Police Commissioner Frank Reagan.
Addressing the axe in a heartfelt statement, he penned: ‘For the past 13 years it has been an honor and a privilege to work on a show that not only celebrates the men and women who protect and serve in New York City, but also displayed the importance of family.
‘Working alongside these incredible actors, writers, producers, directors and crew has been a dream come true and I’m grateful to have been a part of this extraordinary group for over 275 episodes.
‘Thank you to CBS Studios and CBS Network for their steadfast support and we offer heartfelt gratitude to the fans who gathered with us for dinner every Friday night.’
