mentalist

As he sat beside me in a cafe booth, mentalist Thommy Ten asked me to take out some items from my bag at random.

Pearce said he remembered telling Kate Mestitz, the Aussie actor whom he was with at the time and divorced in 2015, that the only time he felt “safe” on set was when “The Mentalist” actor Simon Baker was around, “because I’m dumped like a hot potato and he focuses on Simon ... ‘cause he was 10 times prettier than I ever was.”

Now married and living in Nashville, Tennessee, he is proud dad Andrew has seen "how far I've come as a person, because I was an absolute mentalist when I was younger."

After “The Mentalist” was canceled in its shortened seventh season in 2015, Baker appeared in smaller films before returning to TV with the Netflix series “Boy Swallows Universe,” which debuted in January.

Australian actor Simon Baker, best known for his leading role in CBS’ hit series “The Mentalist,” is facing drunk-driving charges in Australia.
