Jamie Foxx, an American actor, is’steadily improving’ after suffering a’medical complication.’
According to People, the 55-year-old Oscar winner is’steadily improving’ after being hospitalized in Atlanta.
Corinne Foxx, the actor’s daughter, alerted fans to the health scare this week with a heartfelt statement on social media.
The 29-year-old actress wrote, ‘We wanted to share that, my father, Jamie Foxx, experienced a medical complication yesterday.
‘Luckily, due to quick action and great care, he is already on his way to recovery,’ she continued.
‘We know how beloved he is and appreciate your prayers. The family asks for privacy during this time,’ the statement concluded.
At the time, sources confirmed to TMZ that Foxx’s unnamed condition was serious enough to require him to go to a hospital.
It’s unclear what symptoms the comedian may have been suffering from.
Foxx has been in Atlanta, Georgia, where he is filming the action-comedy Back In Action.
The hospitalization was serious enough that the actor’s family came from out of town to be with him.
One source added, ‘He’s communicating now, and that’s good news,’ which may imply that he was at one point unable to communicate due to the medical emergency.
Foxx shares his daughter Corinne with his ex-girlfriend Connie Kline. He also has a 13-year-old daughter Annalise, whom he shares with Kristin Grannis.
