Reports about Jamie Foxx‘s health have been wide ranging, but the latest update speaks toward things moving in a really positive direction.
According to a TMZ report on Monday (May 15), the actor has been released from the hospital and entered what’s touted as one of the top physical rehabilitation centers in the country.

Both of his daughters Corinne Foxx and Anelise Foxx were pictured visiting him at the Chicago-based rehab center over Mother’s Day weekend – and they appeared to be in good spirits. There is still little information about what exactly happened to the beloved actor, but the facility he’s in reportedly specializes in stroke recovery, traumatic brain injury rehab, spinal cord injury rehab and cancer rehabilitation.
According to an insider, Jamie is “recovering well” and has been at the rehab center since late April following his hospital stint in Atlanta.

The news arrives on the heels of an announcement that Jamie and Corinne have been tapped to host a new FOX game show titled We Are Family, set for 2024. Foxx is also an executive producer on the new show.
The 55-year-old’s hospitalization was first announced by Corinne last month. She revealed he had experienced an unspecified “medical complication” the day before, but was already on the mend.

“From the Foxx Family. We wanted to share that, my father, Jamie Foxx, experienced a medical complication yesterday,” she said in a statement. “Luckily, due to quick action and great care, he is already on his way to recovery.”
She added: “We know how beloved he is and appreciate your prayers. The family asks for privacy during this time. Much love, the Foxx Family.”
TMZ reported at the time that Jamie Foxx’s condition was serious enough that he had to be taken to the hospital, with members of his family visiting him. He was said to be “communicating now, and that’s good news.”
Over a week later, a source close to the actor/singer told PEOPLE that he was “awake and alert.”
After several conflicting reports regarding Jamie’s health last week, Corinne set the record straight that her father had been out of the hospital for weeks and was recuperating.

“Update from the family: Sad to see how the media runs wild. My Dad has been out of the hospital for weeks, recuperating,” she wrote in an Instagram Story on May 12. “In fact, he was playing pickleball yesterday! Thanks for everyone’s prayers and support.”
There was an outpouring of support in recent weeks from fans and friends alike as Tyler, The Creator and Kid Cudi sent their well-wishes to the multi-hyphenate entertainer.
