Corinne Foxx Celebrates Engagement in Jamie Foxx’s Rehab Room After His Health Scare

Corinne Foxx, the daughter of acclaimed actor Jamie Foxx, recently shared a heartwarming story about how she celebrated her engagement to Joe Hooten during her father’s recovery from a health scare. Last year, Jamie Foxx experienced a severe “medical complication,” leading to months of treatment in a physical rehabilitation center. This emotional moment showcases the importance of family support in times of difficulty.

Adjusting Plans for Love

In an interview with Vogue, Corinne revealed that she and her fiancé initially planned to spend the summer in Chicago, where her father was undergoing rehabilitation. At that time, Hooten was preparing to propose to Corinne. However, with the change of location, he had to adjust his plans for both the proposal and the subsequent engagement celebration.

A Magical Proposal

“Little did I know that Joe had changed his plans so he could still propose on the same day—just in a different city,” Corinne shared. Hooten found a beautiful park in Chicago adorned with cherry blossoms in bloom, which set the perfect scene for his heartfelt proposal.

Family Matters

In a move that demonstrated his commitment to family, Hooten invited Corinne’s mother, Connie Kline, and her aunts to join in the special moment. Corinne humorously noted that her aunts were “hiding in a bush” while FaceTiming her father, allowing him to partake in the joyous occasion from afar.

Intimate Celebration

After the proposal, the couple celebrated their engagement with a small yet intimate gathering in Jamie Foxx’s rehab room. “It was a very special post-engagement party,” Corinne explained. “It was a small celebration, but it was so intimate and meaningful,” highlighting the deep connections between family and love during challenging times.

A Wedding to Remember

Fast forward to September 2024, Jamie Foxx had the honor of walking his daughter down the aisle at her wedding. The ceremony took place at his home in Thousand Oaks, California, showcasing the strength of their bond.

Looking Ahead

Despite the uncertainty surrounding his health, Jamie Foxx has remained optimistic. While details about his health complication have not been disclosed, he is expected to share more during a live one-man show in Atlanta. For more updates on Jamie Foxx’s recovery, check out Entertainment Weekly.
