Ted Danson: Bill Clinton Used Secret Service to Grill Me About Mary

Bill Clinton literally sent the Secret Service after Ted Danson to find out what his intentions were with Mary Steenburgen. Yes, really.

The ‘Cheers’ legend just revealed that back in the ’90s, Clinton — who apparently had a soft spot for Steenburgen — was NOT messing around when it came to her romantic life. According to Danson, the former president straight-up interrogated him about where things were headed with the actress. The kicker? Clinton had the feds do his dirty work.

For context: Danson and Steenburgen met on the set of ‘Pontiac Moon’ in 1993 and got married on Martha’s Vineyard in 1995. So this interrogation went down right in that sweet spot when things were getting serious between them. Clearly, Clinton was protecting his girl — or at least trying to.

Danson’s been keeping this story locked away for decades, but he’s finally spilling. And honestly? The image of the Secret Service tracking down an actor to ask about his relationship status is absolutely unhinged in the best way possible.
