Jamie Foxx Looks ‘Strong And Well’ In Recent Video
By Movieguide® Contributor
Jamie Foxx made a rare appearance following a recent health scare, returning a woman’s lost purse in Chicago.
“I think a horn was blowing, and my sister’s saying ‘Look over here,’” Terri Glen said of the moment. “I immediately knew it was [someone with] my bag. And I’m like, ‘My bag?’ I said ‘Jamie?’. I knew it was him immediately, just like I thought it was my bag immediately.”
A video Glen accidentally took of the moment shows Foxx handing her the bag.
“I ran around the bicycle and I said, ‘Can I have a hug?’ And ‘Are you alright? Do you feel good?’ Like, I didn’t get to get a picture and I didn’t even know I had the video,” Glen laughed. “He said, ‘I feel good.’ He just kind of had, like, a little smile…It made me really feel like he was appreciative of me asking about his well-being instead of saying, ‘Hey, can we get a picture?’”
She also noted that the actor seemed “strong and well” — something that has been a topic of conversation following a social media post from his daughter Corrine.
“Luckily, due to quick action and great care, he is already on his way to recovery,” her now-deleted post read.
Corinne updated fans again after rumors started swirling about Foxx’s condition, writing, “Update from the family: Sad to see how the media runs wild. My Dad has been out of the hospital for weeks, recuperating.”
An inside source told Us Weekly echoed Corinne’s comments, saying, “Jamie is doing so much better and he’s starting to feel like himself again. He’s not 100 percent and is still taking things easy, but he’s definitely on the road to recovery.”
Movieguide® previously reported on Foxx’s health:
Actor Jamie Foxx suffered an unnamed health emergency over two months ago but is now back home and doing well.
Fox News Digital reported Porscha Coleman who spoke with Entertainment Tonight and stated, “I’ve talked to people very close to Foxx, [he] is doing well.”
“One thing about Jamie is that he’s always valued his privacy,” she continued. “If you’ve noticed, Jamie Foxx has always been on the low,” she added.
She continued, “Even when it came to dating, Jamie’s always been private, so it never surprised me. Once I heard the news, of course, I reached out, but how Foxx is doing it is how Foxx should be doing it. He’s resting, he’s well. And he’s going to be back. Trust and believe.”
