The upcoming Back in Action movie’s actor had a medical emergency last month.
Even though Jamie Foxx recently broke his silence for the first time since being admitted to the hospital and posted on Instagram that he was “feeling blessed” in the face of the outpouring of support from both fans and celebrities, people are still worried about his condition.
The actor hasn’t really returned to the public spotlight since having a medical problem while filming Back in Action, his latest movie with Cameron Diaz, in Atlanta, Georgia.
On April 13, the details of his “medical complication” were initially made public; since then, little has been learned about what went wrong, and he is reportedly still in the hospital. Although the Foxx family has given reassurance that he is healthy and that his recovery is going well, nothing is actually known about what happened.
The actor’s daughter, Corinne Foxx, shared the news of her father’s hospitalization on Instagram on behalf of the entire family on April 13.
The family issued the following statement: “We wanted to convey that my father, Jamie Foxx, had a medical issue yesterday [Tuesday]. Fortunately, he is presently improving toward recovery as a result of timely action and great care.
They added, “We know how cherished he is, and we value your prayers. The family is asking for privacy at this time.
What details about Jamie Foxx’s health has his family made public?
Except for periodic updates on the celebrity’s progress, the Foxx family hasn’t disclosed much about what happened, Jamie’s health, or the circumstances of his recovery.
After the incident, he spent a week in a hospital in Georgia, where he is reportedly still recovering. CNN said at the time that he was still being observed at the hospital and that investigations were being conducted to determine what had precipitated the medical emergency.
Will Jamie Foxx go back to work?
After the news of his medical condition became public, Back to Action’s filming continued. Back to Action is what convinced Cameron to end an almost 10-year retirement. Five days after Jamie was admitted to the hospital, images from the set instead showed the actress working next to a body double for her co-star, even though he hasn’t yet returned to the set.
On May 3, FOX stated that Jamie will temporarily replace him on his program Beat Shazam. He is a co-host of the popular game show, where his daughter Corinne also works as a DJ, but he will be absent for its upcoming sixth season.
The show, which was filmed in Ireland, will make its debut on May 23. As the network stated in a statement: “This season, not wanting game show fans to miss a minute of fun, Nick Cannon has offered to fill in as guest host for his friends, Jamie and Corinne Foxx.” Nick Cannon will replace Jamie as host.
Additionally skipping the current season, Corinne will be replaced as the DJ by Kelly Osbourne.
Has Jamie Foxx expressed any opinions about his health?
Jamie’s first interaction with his followers was via an Instagram post after he informed them of his departure from Beat Shazam.
He wrote on Instagram on May 3 that he “appreciated all the love!!! Feeling blessed,” along with the fox, red heart, and prayer hands emojis.
In another post, he expressed appreciation to Nick for serving as Beat Shazam’s temporary host, writing: “Appreciate ya, my boy, @nickcannon. Everyone soon.
