Jamie Foxx is on the road to recovery.
The 55-year-old actor took to Instagram on Saturday morning to share a video where he opened up about the “medical complication” he went through that caused him to be hospitalized back in April. Although the actor didn’t give many details about the condition, he did share his gratitude for those who shared their support during the situation.
“Thank u a billion to everybody… been a long road but all the prayers great people and God got me through….

During the video, he also went on to explain why he stayed so quiet during the experience, explaining to fans, “I know a lot of people were waiting or wanting to hear updates but to be honest with you, I just didn’t want you to see me like that, man,” Foxx shared.
“I want you to see me laughing, having a good time, partying, cracking a joke, doing a movie, television show. I didn’t want you to see me with tubes running out of me and trying to figure out if I was gonna make it through.”
The actor also gave credit to his family, explaining how great it felt that “they kept it airtight, they didn’t let nothing out, they protected me, and that’s what I hope that everyone could have in moments like these.”
Foxx also used the opportunity to dispel any rumors that have circulated since his emergency first occurred. “As you can see, the eyes are working, the eyes are working just fine,” he explained. “I’m not paralyzed, but … I went to hell and back, and my road to recovery had some potholes as well. But I’m coming back and I’m able to work.”
