Inside the World of... Celebrity Moustaches!

Tim's hollywood smile!

Today we meet Tim Henderson, world famous moustache of Hollywood actor Tom Selleck. Tim has been working as the trademark moustache of Tom Selleck for over twenty years. Their successful partnership started in 1990 after Tom parted ways with his previous moustache Albert Stanton following Albert's struggle with alcohol and drug abuse. Despite years of working together by the time Tom and Albert were enjoying success in the 1980's as Magnum P.I. and the moustache of Magnum P.I. respectively, there was a huge rift between the two off screen due to Albert's instability and violent outbursts. Famously Tom Selleck had to use an understudy moustache for some scenes in 3 men and a baby and the final series of Magnum P.I. But since Tom Selleck has teamed up with Tim Henderson the duo have gone from strength to strength playing a number of roles on the big screen, such as the smash hit blockbuster 3 Men and a little lady, and on the smaller screen aswell. It was while playing the role of Richard's moustache on the hugely popular comedy series Friends that Tim first met his wife Amanda, who was a producer on the show. 

Now entering their 22nd year of working together Tom Selleck and Tim Henderson are currently starring together in the second series of Blue Bloods, where Tim plays the moustache of New York Police Commissioner Frank Reagan. Tim describes the cast as one big happy family. "We have a lot of laughs between takes" chuckles Tim. "Tom will say to me.. Ready Tim? Give me your best performance. And I'll say... Okay Tom. Hair I go! Oh yes that really tickles Tom it gets him every time!" Tim currently lives in Malibu, California with his wife Amanda and their cat Monty. When he is not filming for his role of the moustache of Frank Reagan Tim enjoys keeping trim at the gym, playing golf with friends and wine tasting.
