Phoenix, Arizona – Jamie Foxx finally opens up about his mysterious hospitalization last year, providing more details about the health scare that kept him out of the spotlight for 20 days. The Oscar-winning actor, known for his roles in “Ray” and “Django Unchained,” shared the harrowing experience during a recent encounter captured on video.
In the video posted to TikTok, Foxx revealed that he was hospitalized in April 2023 while filming the Netflix film “Back in Action” in Atlanta. He recounts experiencing a severe headache on April 11, which led to him asking for an Advil before losing consciousness for nearly three weeks.
During the footage filmed in Phoenix on June 29, Foxx disclosed that his sister and daughter took him to see a doctor who administered a cortisone shot. Another doctor noted that something was amiss in his head, although Foxx refrained from elaborating further on camera.
This rare glimpse into Foxx’s personal life sheds light on his reluctance to discuss the medical emergency publicly. His daughter had previously referred to it as a “medical complication” on social media, prompting the actor to retreat from the public eye.
In a subsequent update in July 2023, Foxx expressed his decision to conceal the full extent of his health crisis, choosing instead to focus on his recovery and maintain a positive image in the public eye. He shared a video on Instagram, revealing the challenges he faced and his journey to regain his health and vitality.
In August 2023, Foxx provided yet another health update on his verified social media accounts, expressing gratitude for the outpouring of support from fans and well-wishers. The actor conveyed his relief at beginning to feel like himself again after what he described as an “unexpected dark journey.”
As Foxx continues to recover and resume his work in the entertainment industry, fans eagerly anticipate the release of “Back in Action,” currently in post-production according to IMDB. The actor’s resilience and openness about his health struggles serve as an inspiration to many, highlighting the importance of perseverance and gratitude in the face of adversity.
