In a recent revelation, actor Jamie Foxx has shed light on the circumstances surrounding his mysterious hospitalization last year. During an Instagram Live session, Foxx confessed that he has no recollection of being hospitalized for a staggering 20 days, leaving his fans and followers with unanswered questions.
Speaking candidly, Foxx revealed that he was in Atlanta at the time when his sister and daughter accompanied him to see the first doctor. Although he murmured something inaudible to the person next to him in the video, Foxx indicated that the second doctor identified a potential issue in his head. However, he refrained from disclosing further details on camera, directing his response to the person capturing the video.
Foxx's eldest daughter, Corinne Foxx, had previously informed the public on April 12, 2023, that her father had encountered a "medical complication." She reassured everyone that due to timely intervention and excellent care, Foxx was already on his path to recovery. Three weeks later, the comedian expressed gratitude on his Instagram Story, acknowledging the outpouring of love and blessings from his well-wishers.
Putting an end to online rumors surrounding his health, Corinne, 30, clarified that her father had left the hospital weeks ago and was actively recuperating. She even mentioned that he had been spotted playing pickleball recently, indicating an improvement in his condition.
However, it wasn't until July that Foxx decided to share more about his ordeal, describing it as a "hellish" experience. In a heartfelt selfie-style video posted on Instagram, Foxx assured his followers that he was neither blind nor paralyzed, debunking speculations. Emotionally, he explained that he had refrained from updating his fans earlier because he didn't want them to witness him in such a vulnerable state.
Grateful for the support he received during his medical journey, Foxx expressed his gratitude to his sister Deidra Dixon, Corinne, and the intervention of God along with the "lot of great medical people" who played a crucial role in saving his life. He also acknowledged the loyalty of his inner circle for maintaining confidentiality about his condition.
The following month, Foxx shared with his fans that he was "finally starting to feel like" himself again after enduring an unexpected dark period. A glimpse of his restored health was evident as he appeared healthy alongside Cameron Diaz, his co-star in the upcoming film "Back in Action," during their time on the Atlanta set in January. Foxx had been filming the action-comedy when he fell ill.
While the exact diagnosis remains undisclosed, Jamie Foxx's disclosure of his harrowing experience and subsequent recovery provides a glimpse into the challenging time he faced. With his resilience and the unwavering support of his loved ones and medical professionals, Foxx has emerged from the ordeal stronger than ever.
