At 79, Tom Selleck has done a lot with his life. He\u2019s starred in several television shows, married the love of his life, become a father, and been named the \u201cSexiest Man Ever\u201d by his loyal fans.<\/p>\n

But there\u2019s one thing Selleck has yet to do, and in 2024, it\u2019s quite surprising the Blue Bloods actor has made it this far.<\/p>\n

While promoting his memoir, set to publish May 7, Tom Selleck revealed he typically stays far away from technology.<\/p>\n

\u201cOccasionally I\u2019ve looked up my name,\u201d he told People. \u201cThat started really with the book, but I\u2019ve never sent my own email. I had a secretary. I\u2019ve never texted anybody.\u201d<\/p>\n

These days his wife of 36 years, Jillie, sends texts for him.<\/p>\n

\u201cI have a certain luxury where I probably couldn\u2019t survive otherwise,\u201d Selleck said. \u201cBut I don\u2019t know. I have a hard time writing things down, which is weird for a guy who\u2019s pushing a book.\u201d<\/p>\n

Selleck\u2019s memoir, You Never Know, details his acting career, which he says he didn\u2019t always have a passion for, from the very beginning to where he\u2019s currently at in life.<\/p>\n

In his book, Selleck explains how his story is unlike many others because he wasn\u2019t \u201cbitten by the acting bug,\u201d rather he just wanted some steady work.<\/p>\n

\u201cI don\u2019t have the hooks that a lot of people do,\u201d he says. \u201cI didn\u2019t rehabilitate myself or have this tragic life. I had my own share of certainly ups and downs, but I\u2019ve been very fortunate.\u201d<\/p>\n

I am shocked Tom Selleck has avoided sending texts and emails for all these years. Even if you had your own secretary, do you think you could stay away from texting?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
