To add Bluetooth to your TV:

How to Check If Your TV Has Bluetooth

In settings, you want to select ‘Sound’ and then ‘Sound Output’. You’ll know your TV is Bluetooth compatible if you see an option for ‘Bluetooth Speaker List'.

Check the Audio Output Ports on the TV

You need to know if there is an optical audio connection, RCA, or an auxiliary output so you have a better idea of what kind of Bluetooth transmitter to buy. There are universal transmitters like the Glovery Bluetooth  which cover all of these connection.
