Jamie Foxx’s daughter has shared an update on her father's health after it was reported that he had been hospitalized.
Last month, it was revealed that the 55-year-old Spider-Man star had been rushed to hospital after experiencing a "medical complication".
His daughter, Corinne Foxx, shared the news with fans on Instagram, adding that the family was grateful for the thoughts and prayers that had been shared for her father. TMZ further reported that the star's medical emergency was "serious enough" that family members who were not in town flocked to be by his side.
Foxx was believed to have been filming his latest movie, Back In Action, in Atlanta, Georgia, when the "medical complication" occurred.
After weeks without any updates from the family, Foxx's fans had continued to grow more concerned with the star's well-being, especially after close friend Charles Mack (AKA Charlie Mack) took to Instagram to ask fans
Mack wrote in a post: "Good morning IG, I need you all to constantly keep our beloved brotha @iamjamiefoxx up whom we all [love] & care for dearly in our Hearts, Minds & Prayers!!!! We need you back Bro. As I always state a true champion isn't the one that wins, it's the one that meets & overcomes adversity!!"
With confusion swelling, some publications and social media pages had been sharing that Foxx's family was "preparing for the worst" - but Corinne has since returned to social media to shut down these false claims.
Sharing one of the false headlines in her Instagram Story, the 29-year-old actor wrote alongside it: "Sad to see how the media runs wild."
Corinne then shared the welcome news that her father was out of hospital and has been for some time.
"My Dad has been out of the hospital for weeks, recuperating," she wrote. "In fact, he was playing pickleball yesterday! Thanks for everyone’s prayers and support."
Foxx shares daughter Corinne with ex Connie Kline, and is also father to 14-year-old Anelise, 14, whom he shares with his ex Kristin Grannis.
A very proud "girl dad", Foxx has previously told Ellen Digital's series Dad Confessions that one of his biggest accomplishments as a father is that Corinne and Anelise can "come tell me anything and we can talk about anything. I know that sounds simplistic but that's everything in the world."
