Tom Selleck lives a charmed life - and he admits it.
The Magnum P.I star - who has been happily married to Jillie Mack for more than three decades - has confessed that he's never sent an email or a text.
So how has he gotten by? Tom revealed to People that he's always had someone else to do it for him, and more often than not, it's Jillie taking control of his communications.
"Occasionally I've looked up my name," he explained. "That started really with the book, but I've never sent my own email. I had a secretary. I've never texted anybody."
He said Jillie sends texts on his behalf and added: "I have a certain luxury where I probably couldn't survive otherwise. But I don't know. I have a hard time writing things down, which is weird for a guy who's pushing a book."

While he admits his wife is behind his electronic messaging, he also loves her independence and credits her having her own life as one of the reasons their marriage has been a success.
"I don't think the relationship would've survived with somebody who was basically eating, sleeping, and working. And Jillie's a very active person, as you can see." Tom told the outlet.

I mean, she'd visit the [Hawaii Five-O] set maybe late in the day, but only after she made my friend, Dave Muntz, take her to the roller skating rink so she could practice roller skating because she was going to audition to Starlight Express."
Tom and Jillie share a daughter, Hannah, who they welcomed in 1988.

Tom lives on a 63-acre avocado farm ranch in California's Ventura County, with Jillie.
He adores his tranquil life but in recent years the grounds have been badly damaged by the droughts that have destroyed almost all of their avocado trees and 25 of their oaks, which had been standing for 100 years.

He described his favorite activities on the ranch as reading the morning paper and driving around on his ATV to check on the wildflowers. "I've planted them for years and they bloom in cycles," he added.
