In the 'Blue Bloods' drama, which may seem male-dominated, strong women have a significant role, according to actor Tom Selleck. In an episode being filmed for Season 9, former partners Jamie and Eddie, played by Will Estes and Vanessa Ray, are preparing for their wedding. Eddie is trying on expensive bridal gowns, assisted by Frank Reagan's daughter and granddaughter, while keeping the impending marriage secret at work. Ray shares her excitement about joining the Reagan family dinner table. Meanwhile, Moynahan's character continues to hold her own against the males in both domestic and professional settings. Young actress Gayle shares how she formed bonds with her on-screen parents, with Selleck even influencing her university pursuits. Other strong women characters include detectives Maria Baez and Abigail Baker whose lives are intertwined with the Reagan clan, and have also become good friends off-screen.
