Just a month before the mysterious illness, reports surfaced that Foxx had a ‘meltdown’ on the Back in Action set in Atlanta, reportedly firing an executive producer, two directors and his own personal driver.

An insider claimed, ‘He demanded the problems be sorted immediately and sacked four of the production staff — as if that would magically improve the situation’.

‘Some people working on it are totally fed up with how this has played out and Jamie has become pretty unpopular,’ the source said.

Then less than a month later, Foxx was hospitalized in Atlanta for an unspecified, ‘medical complication,’ that still has yet to be fully confirmed.

‘We wanted to share that, my father, Jamie Foxx, experienced a medical complication yesterday [Tuesday],’ the family statement began.

‘Luckily, due to quick action and great care, he is already on his way to recovery,’ they continued.

‘We know how beloved he is and appreciate your prayers. The family asks for privacy during this time,’ the statement concluded.

Boxing legend Mike Tyson claimed that Foxx suffered a stroke, though that has yet to be confirmed by the actor’s family.
