Oscar-winning American actor Jamie Foxx, who is still recovering from “medical complications” after which he was hospitalized in April, confirmed that he had “returned from hell” in a video posted on “Instagram” on Friday night, his first comment since his health problem.
“People said I’m going blind, but as you can see, my eyes are nothing,” the comedian joked, squinting with one eye in response to speculation about his condition. He added, “But I lived through hell and came back from it, and my recovery wasn’t without obstacles either,” thanking all of his fans for their support and his family for their discretion.
Last month, the 55-year-old star was transferred to a hospital in the southern state of Georgia, where he was filming a movie for Netflix.
Since then, no details have been revealed regarding the actor’s medical condition, which has led some to speculate that his condition is deteriorating. But his daughter, Corinne Fox, made sure to dispel these rumors in an Instagram post.
She expressed her dissatisfaction with media speculation, saying, “My father was discharged from the hospital a few weeks ago and is recovering. He was even playing (pickleball) yesterday,” which is a popular sport in the United States that combines elements of badminton, table tennis and tennis.
Justifying his long silence, the actor continued, “I didn’t want you to see me with tubes coming out of my body and trying to figure out if I would survive.” “But I will come back and I can continue working,” he added.
During his career, Jamie Foxx won, in particular, an Oscar in 2005 for his remarkable performance of the character of singer Ray Charles, the legend of soul music, in the biopic “Ray”. Also, he was nominated for an Oscar for his role in the movie “Collector” in the same year, and he also imprinted minds in the recent period through his performance as a slave who yearns for freedom in the Western movie “Django Unchained” by Quentin Tarantino.
On April 12, Corinne Fox wrote on Instagram that her father had “suffered medical complications,” but “fortunately, with immediate intervention and good care, he is making a full recovery.”
