Jamie Foxx has experienced a “medical complication,” according to his daughter Corinne Foxx, who shared a family statement to social media on Wednesday, April 12. “From the Foxx family,” the statement began. “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.”
Sources for TMZ with “direct knowledge” reportedly told the outlet that the issue was serious enough for the Oscar winning actor to be hospitalized on Tuesday. Few other details were immediately available, but the family asked for privacy. “We know how beloved he is and appreciate your prayers,” the statement continued. “The family asks for privacy during this time. Much love, the Foxx family.”
Jamie, 55, is known for his robust roles in high profile films, and achieved the highest honor in the entertainment industry in 2005 for the film Ray — a Best Actor Academy Award.
