After a period of silence, actor Jamie Foxx has finally spoken out about his hospitalization earlier this year. In April, Foxx was admitted to an Atlanta hospital due to a “medical complication.” While the exact reason for his hospitalization has not been disclosed, Foxx’s daughter, Corinne Foxx, confirmed the situation at the time. However, the actor has now made his first public statement since the incident, expressing his gratitude and stating that he is “feeling blessed.” It is clear that Foxx’s hospitalization was a serious matter, but fortunately, he seems to be on the road to recovery.
Foxx’s recent public appearance further confirms this positive trajectory. He was spotted cruising on a boat in the Chicago River, looking healthy and even throwing a peace sign to fans. This sighting marks the first time he has been seen in public since his hospitalization in April. In addition to his boat outing, Foxx was also seen out and about in the Chicago area. It is evident that he is making an effort to enjoy life and return to his normal routine.

“First of all, I wanna say thank you to everybody that’s prayed, man, and sent me messages,” the “Django Unchained” actor said in the video. “I cannot even begin to tell you how far it took me and how it brought me back.”
“I went through something that I thought I would never ever go through.”
“I know a lot of people were waiting or wanting to hear updates, but to be honest with you, I just didn’t want you to see me like that man. I want you to see me laughing, having a good time partying, cracking a joke, doing a movie, television show. I didn’t want you to see me with tubes running out of me and trying to figure out if I was gonna make it through.”
The support and love from Foxx’s family have played a crucial role in his recovery. His daughter, Corinne, has been vocal about her father’s progress and reassured fans that he is out of the hospital and recuperating. Foxx himself acknowledged the outpouring of well-wishes from his fans in a statement, expressing his gratitude for their support during this challenging time. Having the love and encouragement of family and fans can make all the difference when facing health struggles, and Foxx recognizes the impact they have had on his journey.
