After her character’s death, Carlson shared a touching post on her Instagram account.
“My heart is full of gratitude to each of you for your generous support of me and my character for the last seven years of Blue Bloods — Linda Reagan. I have been touched by your compassion and enthusiasm. I loved playing Linda… I’m proud of my contribution to building this series. I’m so grateful to CBS and the Blue Bloods cast and crew. Mostly, I am grateful to the fans who have supported me and the show.”
Speaking to Deadline, Carlson also shared her disappointment with the way her exit was handled on screen. Or, as it were, not on screen at all.
“I feel badly that she dies the way she dies. I did not know they would do that, I was surprised. I wouldn’t have done that,” she said, adding that she would be open to coming back for a ‘flashback’ if producers wanted to do that. “I think it’s been hard on the fans. I never wanted it to end that way, so I feel sad for the fans because everyone wants closure, and I hear that a lot from the fans.”
