As time progresses, actor, comedian, singer, and entertainer Jamie Foxx has been hospitalized for nearly a month. While bits and pieces about the actor’s health have been leaked, we don’t know much. But a glimmer of hope shined as Jamie shared his first post since being hospitalized.

According to PEOPLE.com, a source close to the Day Shift star revealed that Foxx is in fact on the road to recovery, though he remains in the hospital for monitoring and testing.

“Jamie is stable and not in a life-threatening situation now,” the source told the outlet, adding that “[doctors] are doing more tests and want to be completely sure that he will be okay before allowing him” to be discharged.

The insider also noted that the Spider-Man: No Way Home star is under orders to “keep his stress level down” once he is able to return home, though it’s unclear when that might be as his exact condition has not yet been made public.

The Dreamgirls alum reportedly wouldn’t be spending another minute at the hospital if it wasn’t what’s best for his health right now, as the source called the hospital “the last place Jamie wants to be.”

“He has a lot of projects going on,” they explained. “He gets things done; he is focused and astute. What happened to him medically is serious enough to keep him in the hospital.”

The next big gig on his list was resuming hosting duties for “Beat Shazam.” However, it was confirmed via multiple news outlets that his friend Nick Cannon will be helming the show this season. Also absent from the production is Jamie’s daughter, Corinne Foxx. The 29-year-old serves as co-host and deejay on the popular contest show. Next up would have been appearances to promote They Cloned Tyrone. The film stars Jamie, John Boyega, and Teyonah Parris. It will premiere on June 14, the opening night of the 27th American Black Film Festival. The project will then be released on Netflix on July 21.

Earlier this week, Jamie posted an update on Instagram after weeks of fans and peers praying and sending well wishes that he would make a full recovery. On May 3rd, he wrote…

“Appreciate all the love! Feeling blessed,” he wrote on May 3. The outpouring of love is sure to continue as he heals.

“Appreciate [you], my boy Nick Cannon. See [you] all soon,” Jamie Foxx wrote along with a screenshot of a post from his daughter Corinne, who serves as a DJ on the popular game show. She is temporarily being replaced by Kelly Osbourne to be with her father as he recovers. Jeremy Renner, who is currently recovering from a snowplow accident, took to the comments to offer support.

“Sending you strength and love,” the Marvel alum wrote. Other celebrities, including action star Vin Diesel, Courteney Cox, and singer John Legend, replied with the prayer emoji. Musician Mary J Blige also sent her love to Jamie Foxx with a simple message that read, “Love you, Jamie.” Naturally, fans showed their appreciation for the actor with their own notes.

Natasha Blasic who was Jamie Foxx’s former costar shared some news about his friend’s health conditions after he was hospitalized for a serious health condition.

The All-Star weekend actress opened up and said that after hearing from his friend she felt “so much better.” Although there were some people who scared her about Foxx’s recovery.

Blasick was interviewed by Entertainment Tonight and she commented that a source told her “He was like, ‘No, no, no, he’s recovering,'”.

Blasick claims that many people around her are “praying together” because “All we have in this world is our health. Our life. So it’s very scary.”
