Aging Tom Selleck is still in bad shape and a grumpy mood over the cancellation of Blue Bloods — and insiders revealed his struggles to walk are making things worse.
The 79-year-old actor has been doing physical therapy, but “he’s unsteady on his feet and has trouble walking unassisted,” said an insider.
Said the source: “If things don’t improve, he’ll have to swallow his pride and use a walker.”
Tom seemed downcast and walked with difficulty as he arrived at a private residence in Thousand Oaks, California, on October 1 before hitting the gym.
“Tom struggles to walk and always looks a mess,” said an eyewitness.
“He has scars on his knees, which would indicate he’s had surgery on them recently. Clearly, it’s not going so well and taking a long time to heal.
“What he really needs is to lose weight – because all those extra pounds aren’t doing his joints any good!”
As RadarOnline.com has reported, Selleck is said to be crunching the scales at 350 pounds, which is 150 pounds more than he weighed during his Magnum, P.I. heyday in the 1980s.
Sources and docs alike said he was obese and could face serious health issues.
Meanwhile, the end of ‘Blue Bloods’ after 14 years has left Selleck bored, bitter and depressed, sources said.
“He doesn’t seem to know what to do with himself,” dished an insider. “His sense of purpose has left him!”
