Jamie Foxx is a famous American actor, singer, and comedian who has won numerous awards for his work in the entertainment industry. He’s also a proud father to two children, Corinne Foxx and Anelise Bishop, whom he co-parents with ex-girlfriend Connie Kline. Both of Jamie Foxx’s children have made headlines in their own right—Corinne following in her father’s footsteps as an actress and model, while Annalise has walked the red carpet with her dad on many occasions. Not much is known about his children’s mother, but we do know she served in the US Air Force for five years and subsequently worked as a teacher at high schools in North Carolina and Manhattan.
On April 12, 2023, Jamie Foxx’s daughter Corinne Foxx issued a statement on her Instagram, revealing that he’d experienced a medical emergency that would leave him hospitalized for over a week. “We wanted to share that my father, Jamie Foxx, experienced a medical complication yesterday,” the statement read. “Luckily, due to quick action and care, he is already on his way to recovery. We know how beloved he is and appreciate your prayers. The family asks for privacy during this time.”
A source “with direct knowledge” told TMZ that Fox experienced a “medical emergency” Tuesday morning on April 10, 2023, and was taken to the hospital. They were told his condition was serious enough that Foxx’s family, many of whom came out of town, visited him at the hospital. One source told the tabloid site, “He’s communicating now, and that’s good news.” TMZ also reported on May 15, 2023, that Jamie Foxx’s children and other family members were by his side in Chicago as her underwent physical rehab following his health scare.

As his second child, Foxx often shares photos and videos of Anelise on his social media accounts, showing his followers just how much he adores his daughter. During an August 2020 interview with Entertainment Tonight, Foxx shared that she had taken up piano. “That’s what’s been good is we have been able to connect like that,” he said. “My 11-year-old now knows how to play the piano so well, she actually plays my songs while I sing to them,” he added. “She said, ‘I am going on tour with you.’ I am blessed, we are all blessed.”
Foxx also gushed that Anelise was a gun at sport. “She’s playing football with all the boys. She’s playing flag football and she’s the only girl in the league,” he told Kelly Ripa and Ryan Seacrest. “When she got on the football field, at first they didn’t want to throw it to her. But I said, ‘Anelise when you’re out, do like this,’ ” Foxx said as he waved his hands. “She waved her hands and they threw it to her, and she hit for like a 60-yarder. It was crazy.”
