Jamie Foxx’s eldest daughter, Corinne, revealed that her father suffered a “medical complication” but is currently “in recovery”.
The 29-year-old took to social media Wednesday night to share a message from “the Foxx family.”
“We wanted to share that my father, Jamie Foxx, had a medical complication yesterday,” he began the statement.
“Fortunately, thanks to quick action and great care, he’s already on his way to recovery.”
The family’s message continued: “We know how much he is loved and we appreciate your prayers. The family wants privacy during this time.”
The 55-year-old actor’s representative did not immediately respond to Page Six’s request for comment.
Sources with “direct knowledge” of the situation told TMZ that Jamie was hospitalized on Tuesday morning and his condition was “serious enough” and family members had arrived in town.
“It’s communicating now, and that’s good news,” one of the channel’s sources said.
It comes a few weeks after the “Django Unchained” star returned to the set of his movie “Back in Action” amid reports that he was experiencing a “meltdown”.
He and Cameron Diaz were last seen filming scenes in the snow-covered English countryside late last month after Foxx fired four people.
According to The Sun, the “Ray” star is believed to have had a “tantrum” and fired an executive producer, two directors and their chauffeur in the Seth Gordon-directed film.
A separate report from the outlet claimed that Foxx was the target of a $40,000 scam and halted production of the “nightmare” movie set pending an investigation.
“It looks like they tried to offer a Rolex watch as part of the deal,” an insider said. “People will be pleased when this business is finally over.”
Meanwhile, other reports claim that the 50-year-old Diaz will retire – again – from his acting career once the Netflix cameras stop working.
It’s her first return to Hollywood since 2014’s “Annie.”
“Those 10-hour workdays in a row have been too much for her and she hates being away from Raddix,” an insider told the Daily Mail last month, claiming she wanted to focus on being the mother of her 3-year-old. Ex-daughter with her husband Benji Madden.
“Cameron loves being a mother more than anything in the world.”
Jamie is also a parent: he shares Corinne with ex-girlfriend Connie Kline and second daughter Anelise Bishop, 14, with ex-girlfriend Kristin Grannis.
The “Soul” star has never been married but was in a serious relationship with Katie Holmes from 2013 to 2019.
