Donnie Wahlberg Talks Boston Marathon … and Marriage! Its been a busy few weeks for Donnie Wahlberg, between wrapping the fourth season of Blue Bloods and expanding his familys burger joint Wahlburgers to include a Fenway Park location … oh, and asking Jenny McCarthy to marry him. But if theres one thing he always makes time for, its his beloved city of Boston. The actor and New Kids on the Block star will be heading to his hometown on Sunday for the Boston Marathon, a year after two bombs went off at the finish line. We were all really affected last year, he tells PEOPLE, remembering that he heard the news while filming on the set of Blue Bloods in New York City. The crew, who had all lived through 9-11, started coming over to me one by one, saying, There is something wrong in Boston, you should go call people. This year, youll find Wahlberg watching along the race route, shoulder-to-shoulder with his fellow Bostonians. I cant even imagine how proud Im going to feel standing there, he says. I had a notion of running it myself but I decided to put my energy into supporting my brother [Jim], my bandmates [Joey and Danny], and all the other thousands and thousands of people running.
