Foxx has been hospitalized with a mystery illness for almost a month. His daughter revealed that he was rushed to the hospital over a “medical complication” in mid-April.
“Luckily, due to quick action and great care, he is already on his way to recovery,” Corinne, 29, wrote on Instagram at the time. “We know how beloved he is and appreciate your prayers. The family asks for privacy during this time.”
His health issues follow reports that he had a meltdown on set of his new movie with Cameron Diaz.
Amid his hospitalization, the movie temporarily halted filming but resumed days later with a body double for Foxx.
Last month, reports surfaced that Foxx’s health was improving steadily. And another source confirmed that Foxx was awake and alert.
