Why Blue Bloods’ Marisa Ramirez Loves Working With Donnie Wahlberg – Looper

While Marisa Ramirez has been a part of several high-rated titles on Rotten Tomatoes for varying lengths of time throughout her career, there is no question her longest commitment is solving crimes with Donnie Wahlberg on “Blue Bloods.” During that period, she formed a special bond with her co-star that only strengthened over time. “Other jobs I’ve had… I’m three years with this person or three months with this person, but this is now… We’re at eight years, and I think our relationship has definitely evolved more so this year,” Ramirez told Country Living in an interview. The actress also wasn’t afraid to share how she feels about working with the actor, telling the outlet, “We just love each other… I’m so excited to be at work with him and to feel safe with someone who knows me, because I feel like I keep my guard up with other actors, or crew, or whoever, and this is a place where I can let it down… It feels very safe and comfortable.” It appears the two have had a rewarding experience working alongside one another on the show, which has been one of the reasons the actress has been so committed to the series.

Ramirez has not been shy about making it clear that if it wasn’t for the scenes in “Blue Bloods” she gets to shoot with Donnie Wahlberg, there’s a good chance she wouldn’t be on the show. And if people thought they were only fictional buddies on Television, think again. In addition to being partners in stopping crime on TV, the actress has confirmed the two are friends in real life, erasing any doubts about how Ramirez feels about Donnie Wahlberg.
