News of his hospitalization broke earlier on Wednesday when his daughter took to social media to tell fans that he was “on his way to recovery.”
Corinne Foxx, 29, wrote: “We wanted to share that my father, Jamie Foxx, experienced a medical complication yesterday. Luckily, due to quick action and great care, he is already on his way to recovery.
“We know how beloved he is and appreciate your prayers. The family asks for privacy during this time.
“Much love, The Foxx Family.”

CHAOS ON SET
Jamie is co-starring in a new Hollywood blockbuster alongside Cameron Diaz, but the production was recently plunged into further chaos after an unexploded World War II bomb was found on set, The U.S. Sun revealed.
The production crew was planning to film two huge stunts, including a major explosion, but they had to be canceled after the bomb was discovered.
Hundreds of thousands of dollars of the movie’s budget were wasted after filming was canceled at East London’s Royal Docks.
A source said: “The production expected the scene to go off with a bang — but nobody could have predicted it would all be derailed by a bomb.
“The stunt was booked to take place last month at the dock. A 24-meter barrier was being erected into the river, where the explosion would take place.
“But it was during the building of the set that they believed they found what they thought to be an unexploded bomb in the water.
“Safety was the main priority, so after speaking with the police and relevant authorities, the whole thing was canceled.
“Naturally, that part of the river is never normally disturbed, so it’s been left as it is.”
It’s believed that there are around 100,000 tons of unexploded ordnance in waters around the UK from both World Wars.
London was the main target for Nazi bombers during the Blitz.
The U.S. Sun’s movie insider added: “The cancellation was a massive blow to the film, which has already experienced a few issues.
“After the two stunts were canned, they were filmed on a green screen at Longcross Studios in Surrey.
“It cost a huge amount of money and was a massive headache for everyone involved.”

Bizarre UTI side effect could turn your urine PURPLE due to highly rare condition, medics find
DOCTORS have found a rare condition which could turn your urine purple – if you have a UTI.
Medics in Kentucky examined an elderly lady whose bladder infection complications turned her urine a deep shade of purple.

The 76-year-old patient was hospitalized and hooked up to a catheter to drain away her urine after suffering from health issues.
She also had a history of kidney disease and bladder cancer and came to hospital with shortness of breath from congestive heart failure.
Upon further investigation, it was revealed she had an acute kidney injury and other health complications.
Based upon the patient’s history and the microbiology results, a diagnosis of PUBS was made.
Purple urine bag syndrome (PUBS) is a rare side effect in a patient with urinary tract infection where urine in the catheter bags and tubing turn purple, the medics explained.
A UTI caused a biochemical reaction which resulted in the oddly-coloured urine.
Doctors issued the rare diagnosis of purple urine bag syndrome (PUBS).
It occurs in as many as 42 per cent of patients who have been hooked up to catheters for prolonged periods of time.
A chemical reaction in the liver produces an indigo pigment and indirubin, a red pigment. They are then combined and oxidized to turn purple.
Doctors from the University of Pikeville in Kentucky shared the case in the Oxford Medical Case Reports.
In the report, they said: “PUBS can be associated with many different types of bacteria in the urinary tract.
“The urine in PUBS gets its color from the combination of two pigments, indirubin and indigo, which are breakdown products of tryptophan.”
PUBS was first described clinically in 1978, the Daily Mail reported.
The condition is not usually dangerous, but it can be alarming to patients and their loved ones.
WHAT IS PURPLE URINARY BAG SYNDROME?
According to Urology News, PUBS is an uncommon phenomenon where the tubing and urinary catheter bag turns a purple colour.
This has been linked with urinary tract infections (UTI), chronic debilitated states and prolonged catheterisation.
Medics say the purple tinge of urine is prompted by a series of chemical reactions in the body.
Doctors at the King George’s Medical University in Lucknow, India, wrote in the British Medical Journal Case Reports last year: “The combination of indigo and indirubin gives a purple hue to the urine collection bag.”
It is usually benign though – but doctors may be interested in finding the root causes of PUBS.
Primary risk factors may include age, gender, and in kidney failure, having alkaline urine and constipation.
