Marisa Ramirez made a surprise cameo in the premiere of Boston Blue, returning as Detective Maria Baez—and finally confirming her romantic relationship with Danny Reagan, played by Donnie Wahlberg.
Fans of Blue Bloods had long awaited this moment, and the reveal didn’t disappoint. Baez also appeared again at the end of Episode 3 and is set to return for a full episode later in the season, sparking speculation about whether she could come back permanently.
The series follows Danny as he starts a new chapter in Boston after his son Sean, portrayed by Mika Amonsen, is injured while rescuing people from a fire. Now recovered, Sean has joined the police force, with Danny working alongside him at the Boston Police Department.
Danny’s new partner is Detective Lena Silver, played by Sonequa Martin-Green, who—like the Reagans—comes from a large law enforcement family. Their weekly family gatherings mirror the Reagan tradition, with the Silvers observing Shabbat dinners every Friday.
