Jamie Foxx’s personal message to the public comes three weeks after the actor suffered a “medical complication” that left him hospitalized in Georgia.
Minimal information on Foxx’s condition has been revealed, but Foxx’s friend Kevin Hart gave fans an update during a new interview.
“I think the dope thing is that he’s getting better in his situation,” Hart shared on the “Impaulsive” podcast. “Everybody’s prayers, everybody’s love, energy, all that stuff is seen and felt. So in this case, man, you just want the guy to get out of the situation he’s in and get back home.”
“To my knowledge, there is a lot of progression,” Hart went on. “My love, synergy, energy goes out to him. He’s needed. He’s necessary. I know that he knows that… I know that he feels that because there’s been an outcry, an outpour of support in this regard, so I can only hope that it continues.”
