Jamie Foxx breaks social media silence months after mysterious health issues

Jamie Foxx broke his social media silence after a worrying few months saw him hospitalised following a "medical complication".

After spending time in the hospital in April, the 55 year old was thought to have later attended a physical rehabilitation centre following the health issue, which is said to have occurred while he was working on the Netflix film Back in Action.

However, things definitely seemed to be back on track health-wise for Jamie as he took to his Twitter account for the first time since March, where he gushed about his trip on the waters.

Hours earlier, the actor was seen smiling and waving at fans and even threw up a peace sign as he cruised down the river.

And confirming that he had the best day, the Oscar-winning actor tweeted on Sunday: "Boat life. Celebrating summer with @brownsugarbbn. Stay blessed!"

His fans were thrilled at his social media display, with one fan commenting: "I am sooooo glad that God saw fit to keep you with us, I prayed for your recovery amongst so many others, Stay Blessed and ALWAYS give thanks to our God for the wonderful things that He has done!!!."

Another added: "Seeing you made my heart so full. Praying for you," while a third wrote: "Love hearing from you. All the best. My favorite entertainer."

During his sighting on the boat, which doubled as a promotional event for his Brown Sugar Bourbon brand, Jamie wore an all-black outfit and aviator sunglasses and smiled brightly at fans who had seen him for the first time since the health scare.

He has yet to address his health struggle publicly.

There have since been some updates about his recovery from those close to him, with it now claimed that Jamie - whose credits include the films Ray (2004) and Django Unchained (2012) - is "still not himself".

Discussing the actor's health, a source told People magazine this week: "He is getting the best care and working hard to recover right now, but he is still not himself."

The source further stated that those close to Jamie remain tight-lipped about his health, with them telling the outlet recently: "He has the tightest circle around him".

The remarks come after John Boyega, 31 - who stars alongside Jamie in the upcoming film. They Cloned Tyrone (2023) - shared an update about his co-star.

He spoke about Jamie - who is also credited as a producer on the film, which is due to be released on Netflix next month - whilst at the premiere in Los Angeles earlier this month.

John, who had previously expressed interest in speaking to his co-star amid news of his health issue, told the outlet whilst at the event: "He finally picked up the phone."

The actor continued: "He's doing well." John said that he is giving Jamie privacy and "can't wait" for his return, with him adding that he expressed "all the well wishes" to him.
