At a New Kids on the Block concert in August, Donnie told the crowd "something awesome" could be in the works. "We filmed the apparent last season of Blue Bloods, and it'll air starting in October. Maybe there'll be something else after that," he said. "I don't know anything officially yet, but there are things in the works. So maybe something awesome will happen. You know I'll do things after Blue Bloods no matter what."
Donnie filmed his last episode in June, and he reflected on the cancellation on Instagram. "I’ve taken this walk thousands of times in 14 years and it was a teary final walk from the Blue Bloods dinner scene, last week. More so than I could have ever imagined. Of course some sad tears — but mostly tears of immense humility," he wrote in the caption.
A milestone for Donnie
His announcement comes after he celebrated his 10th wedding anniversary with his wife, Jenny McCarthy. They renewed their vows at Hotel Baker in St. Charles, Illinois, where they said "I do" on Aug. 31, 2014. They shared a fun clip on Instagram changing into their matching outfits for the ceremony.
