The 38-year-old Tom back then while filming in London began getting fascinated with the musical Cats. However, it later turned out he had grown fond of the 25-year-old highly energetic dancer named Jillie Joan Mack who played Rumpleteazer. They went out to dinner dates which soon turned into a love affair as Mack was spotted everywhere alongside Selleck during public appearances.

In 1987, the pair shocked the fans as well as reporters when the couple married in secret. Bob Selleck, Tom's brother arranged all of the marriage details under different names 'Tom Jenkins' and 'Suzie Mark' at the 24-hour wedding chapel in Lake Tahoe, Nevada.

Even the priest was unaware of the pair's true identity until moments before the ceremony. Meanwhile, Selleck ensured only Polaroid pictures were taken of the wedding to prevent them from getting leaked. The lovebirds welcomed their first and only child named Hannah Selleck a year later in 1988.

Tom subsequently quit the TV series Magnum and purchased a 65-acre ranch in Ventura County in California deciding to dedicate more time to his family. He further claimed this was the best place for his daughter Hannah to grow up.

The couple celebrated their 30th Anniversary on 7th August last year and Tom talked about his happy married life with his lovely wife. You can watch it below.
