Foxx’s emotional words have shown his elation and pride. Foxx is an actor who shares his 29-year-old daughter Corinne with his ex, Connie Kline. It left Foxx deeply moved when Joe Hooten asked for his blessing to propose to Corinne, which reflected the close bond he has with Corinne and her mother, Connie Kline.
Jamie Foxx revealed on Instagram with an affectionate post that, “You’re an example of what in love is… You care for each other’s life mentally and physically… and have each other’s back…. Congrats on your engagement.” He recalled how Joe Hooten nearly came close with his whispering voice, when he let Foxx know he planned to pop the question to Corinne. “I had tears of joy in my soul,” Foxx wrote.
As a proud father, Jamie Foxx continued to say, ” @corinnefoxx you have… and have always had a special place in my heart… you deserve love abundantly… so again congratulations you two… can’t wait to walk you down that aisle.” He thanked Corinne’s partner, saying she has found someone with a “great soul” and that he loves them both dearly. With Corinne’s mother, Connie Kline, also playing an important role in Corinne’s life, it is evident that the family shares a solid foundation of love and support.
Foxx’s poignant words coincide with a high-profile moment from which he has lately benefited following an equally dramatic confrontation with life. This past month, Jamie made his first official appearance since April when he was battling a mystery illness that paused production on his Netflix movie Back in Action. He received a standing ovation as he accepted the Vanguard Award during the Critics Choice Association’s Celebration of Cinema and Television in Los Angeles.
Reflecting on the ordeal, Foxx candidly addressed the crowd concerning the problems he had endured, stating, “I couldn’t do that six months ago – I couldn’t actually walk. I cherish every single minute now – it’s different.” Gratitude characterized the actor for that minute, reliving how huge his health battles had gotten when saying, “I wouldn’t wish what I went through on my worst enemy… it’s tough when it’s almost over… when you see the tunnel. I saw the tunnel – I didn’t see the light”. He humorously declined various speculations that he must have been away to see and clone or so, remarking, “I am not a clone, am not a clone”.
I know loads of people out there were saying that I was cloned, he said.
The good news of Corinne’s engagement and Jamie’s recent public appearance was much more uplifting to fans, no doubt including Foxx’s ex Connie Kline sharing in the joy for their daughter’s future. Jamie Foxx and Connie Kline surely built a loving environment around Corinne, which is sure to have supported her growth and happiness, as testified by Foxx’s heartwarming reaction to her engagement.
