The celebrated CBS series has just hit its remarkable milestone of 250 episodes, and the Reagan family remains as captivating as ever. Amidst fervent anticipation for the confirmation of Blue Bloods' 13th season, Vanessa Ray, a longstanding star of the show, has shed light on what fans might anticipate in the forthcoming installments.
1. Blue Bloods Milestone: The iconic CBS series reaches its 250th episode, maintaining its allure and leaving fans eager for more.
Vanessa tantalizingly hinted at the potential arrival of a new member to the Reagan clan in an upcoming episode of Blue Bloods.
Renowned for her enduring portrayal of Officer Eddie Janko-Reagan, Vanessa embarked on her journey with the police drama in its fourth season.
Following a gradual development of affection with her colleague, Jamie Reagan (played by Will Estes), the duo finally sealed their love with an engagement in the eighth season finale.
A season later, they exchanged vows in the ninth season finale, solidifying Eddie's place within the Reagan family.
2. Vanessa Ray's Tease: Longtime star Vanessa Ray hints at a potential new addition to the Reagan family, sparking excitement among viewers.
Regrettably, Eddie may not be prepared to relinquish her bustling life on the bustling streets of New York for a mundane desk job during her maternity leave.
Vanessa elaborated: "If Eddie were to become pregnant, it would likely confine her to a desk. I'm not certain she would relish that prospect, but being part of the Reagan family has undeniably enriched her life in numerous ways."
Her co-star Will, although not entirely dismissive, remained cryptic when addressing the speculation.
"That's ultimately in the hands of fate and our talented writers," he remarked. "I'll be eagerly awaiting alongside you."
3. Maternity Leave Dilemma: The possibility of Eddie's pregnancy raises questions about her future on the force and within the Reagan family.
The Reagan patriarch, Frank (portrayed by Tom Selleck), already boasts three grandchildren. Nonetheless, since Blue Bloods' inception in 2010, the family hasn't welcomed any newborns into their midst.
Yet, this trend may be poised for a shift as Jamie and Eddie advance in age and contemplate settling down.
4. Uncertain Future: As Jamie and Eddie contemplate settling down, the prospect of a new generation of Reagans emerges, but Eddie's commitment to her career presents a hurdle.
Presently, Eddie exhibits reluctance to abandon her pivotal role in the field, while Jamie adamantly refuses to part ways with his invaluable partner.
