“I don’t like goodbyes,” Anthony admits. “So when one’s coming, I make myself celebrated instead of getting all mopey.”
“Goodbye? I’m not going anywhere,” Erin responds.
“Your campaign announcement is just around the corner, and when that happens, you are out of here,” Anthony says.
“Well, I might be out of here, but never out of your life,” she reassures him.
However, Anthony doesn’t quite believe her. He tells Erin that the A.D.A. who used to work in her office told him the same thing, and they’re no longer in contact.

So, is Bridget Moynahan leaving ‘Blue Bloods’?
As a primary member of the Reagan family, it’s unlikely that the Blue Bloods showrunners would write Bridget’s character out of the series. Not only that, but Bridget’s entire life revolves around the crime drama and its cast.
When speaking with Glamour in October 2021, she admitted that the show’s job security is invaluable. “We know how lucky we are to be on this show … It doesn't come around that often.”
What's more, Blue Bloods is filmed in New York City, the place Bridget calls home. “My family is here,” the 51-year-old actress explained.
While Erin’s campaign for district attorney will undoubtedly spark tremendous changes in her character, Bridget is not going anywhere anytime soon!
New episodes of Blue Bloods air on Fridays at 10 p.m. ET on CBS.
