Aside from being an Oscar and Golden Globe winner, Jamie Foxx is also a proud father.
The actor, singer and comedian, 56, is a dad to two children -- daughters Corinne and Anelise.
When Foxx was hospitalized in 2023 while filming his new movie "Back in Action," it was his eldest daughter, Corinne, who shared updates on the actor, saying he had "experienced a medical complication" but was "already on his way to recovery" thanks to "quick action and great care."
And when Foxx opened up about his health scare for the first time in a new Netflix special, his youngest daughter Anelise joined him onstage.
In his stand-up comedy special, "Jamie Foxx: What Had Happened Was….," the actor revealed that doctors told his sister that he had "a brain bleed" that "led to a stroke."
Foxx said he leaned on his faith in God and the love from his family to get him through that dark period of his life, adding that his motto through it all was, "If I could stay funny, I could stay alive."
Corinne Foxx was born Feb. 15, 1994, in Los Angeles. Jamie Foxx shares Corinne with his former partner Connie Kline.
Following in her dad's footsteps, Corinne Foxx has appeared in movies and TV shows including "47 Meters Down: Uncaged," "Safety" and "Dollface," according to her IMDb page.
When her father experienced a health scare in April 2023, Corinne Foxx provided updates to his fans about the actor's condition.
"We know how beloved he is and appreciate your prayers," she stated at the time. "The family asks for privacy during this time."
The father and daughter also hosted the game show "Beat Shazam" together but the two briefly stepped away from their roles following the elder Foxx's health scare.
