Exciting Times for Donnie Wahlberg in 2025!
In the charming town of St. Charles, Illinois, there’s a buzz of excitement surrounding none other than Donnie Wahlberg. The well-known actor and musician has a lot to celebrate this year, both on the professional front and in his personal life.
New Spin-Off Series ‘Boston Blue’
First up, after the successful run of ‘Blue Bloods’, which concluded in December 2023 after a remarkable 14 seasons, Donnie is back in action! He will be reprising his role as Danny Reagan in the new spin-off series titled ‘Boston Blue’. Set to air in the autumn on CBS, the show’s premise revolves around Danny leaving the bustling streets of New York City and heading to his old stomping grounds in Boston. This fresh take is sure to draw viewers in, especially with the announcement that the talented Sonequa Martin-Green will be joining the cast as Detective Lena Silvers.
Life in St. Charles
As if that weren’t enough, Donnie has also been enjoying life in his stunning megamansion in St. Charles, where the real estate market has seen a healthy 3.8% increase in house prices over the past year. The average home price in the area is around $282,909, but Donnie’s luxurious estate is valued significantly higher. His impressive property showcases a beautiful golf green and a child-friendly pool complete with a grotto, waterfall, and slide, perfect for entertaining the kids on those warm summer days. Additionally, there’s a private nature trail that the family enjoys for walks together.
Celebrating Family
Donnie shares this beautiful home with his wife, Jenny McCarthy, and their blended family. Married since 2014, they have created a warm environment filled with love. Their family includes Jenny’s son Evan from a previous marriage, and Donnie’s two sons, Xavier and Elijah. Inspired by happy snaps of her friend’s children playing outside, Jenny had the wonderful idea of moving to the suburbs, which has certainly paid off in family bonding time.
Philanthropic Dining Experience
Donnie is not just about acting—he’s also giving back to the community! Fans can head over to a local Wahlburgers location in St. Charles, where a special dining experience is set up featuring the iconic dining table from ‘Blue Bloods’. This isn’t just for show; net proceeds from the experience will go to two great charities—the Detectives’ Endowment Association and Northwestern Medicine’s Cancer Center. Plus, patrons will have the chance to snap some memorable photos at the Reagan family table!
A Special Anniversary
On the personal side, Donnie and Jenny have been busy celebrating their love. They recently marked their 10th wedding anniversary with a heartfelt vow renewal ceremony at the exact hotel where they tied the knot—a romantic gesture that beautifully highlights their strong bond. There’s something truly touching about their annual tradition of renewing vows, a lovely way to reinforce their promises and love for one another.
