Jamie Foxx is reportedly lucky to be alive, after suffering a “medical complication” earlier this month.
The Hollywood actor, 55, was rushed to hospital after falling ill while filming his upcoming Netflix movie Back in Action.
His daughter Corinne said in a statement that he is “already on his way to recovery”, as she thanked fans for their prayers.
Although it has not yet been confirmed what medical issue Jamie suffered, a new report has claimed that he is “lucky to be alive”.
A source told RadarOnline: “Jamie suffered a serious medical episode and needed immediate attention. It was touch and go for days with him, and he had to be revived — he is very lucky to be alive!”
The insider added: “Jamie suffers from high blood pressure, which doctors say can cause clots in the brain leading to a stroke. Doctors believe this was a long time coming, and really, if they hadn’t acted fast, Jamie might well have been a goner.”
