Despite recent widespread speculation about Jamie Foxx's health, his daughter Corrine Foxx has set the record straight: the acclaimed actor and singer is in recovery and has been out of the hospital for several weeks. This news comes amidst growing concern for Foxx's health, stemming from an undisclosed medical emergency that saw him admitted to a Georgia hospital over a month ago.
In the wake of Foxx's hospitalization, there has been a flurry of rumors surrounding the nature of his condition, with a source telling Radar Online that the Foxx family was "hoping for the best" but "preparing for the worst." However, the details of Foxx's health struggle have remained largely under wraps, leaving fans and the media in the dark about his condition.
Corrine Foxx sought to dispel the rumors and alleviate concerns about her father's health in a recent Instagram story. "Sad to see how the media runs wild," she wrote. "My dad has been out of the hospital for weeks, recuperating. In fact, he was playing pickleball yesterday! Thanks for everyone's prayers and support!"
She also hinted at an "exciting work announcement" coming from her father in the near future. This tease echoes similar sentiments shared by Foxx's close friend, Nick Cannon, who recently told Entertainment Tonight, "I know he's doing so much better because I'm actually about to do something special for him and doing him a favor."
Despite these positive updates, the exact reason for Foxx's hospital admission remains unclear. The nature of the "medical complication" that led to his hospital stay has not been disclosed, and it is unknown whether Foxx was in any way incapacitated prior to his recovery.
It was revealed by a CNN source that Foxx's medical issue occurred while he was in Atlanta, Georgia, but not on the set of his current film project "Back In Action," where he is co-starring with Cameron Diaz. It also remains unknown whether Foxx had completed his film scenes before his health scare and whether an EMS vehicle was used for his transport to the hospital. As fans eagerly await more news, they can at least be reassured that Jamie Foxx is on the mend.
