Jamie Foxx helps woman find her purse in Chicago and says he ‘feels good’ after mystery illness

Jamie Foxx reunited a woman with her missing handbag in Chicago on Monday.

The 55-year-old Ray actor, who was hospitalized for an unspecified condition in April, appeared in high spirits as he continues his recovery in Windy City.

In footage, which appeared to be the actor, the star can be seen returning one lucky lady’s purse, before returning to his black SUV and giving a friendly ‘hang loose’ hand signal to onlookers.

‘Mom lost her bag in Chicago today Jamie Foxx found it and brought it to her and he said he feels good y’all god is good,’ a fan wrote under an Instagram video of the encounter. 

A female fan can be heard yelling in the background: ‘Thank you, Jamie.’

The comedian has also been seen out golfing amid his recovery.

He was spotted enjoying a late-night outing at Topgolf driving range’s Naperville, Illinois branch at the weekend.

An eyewitness told TMZ Jamie’s swing was ‘better than the people with whom he was competing.’

The insider also described the Oscar winner’s swing as ‘very strong’ and revealed he beat the rest of his group.

They said: ‘He was walking regular, not dragging his leg.

‘His arm movement were definitely good. He was just regular Jamie.’

The report noted that the Topgolf location is near the physical rehabilitation facility in Chicago where Jamie had been seeking treatment following his health scare.

Jamie was also seen on Sunday (09.07.23) on a mega-boat sailing down the Chicago River.

He was joined by at least two other passengers and later hit send on his first tweet since his health crisis.

Referencing his alcohol brand Brown Sugar Bourbon, he said: ‘Boat life Celebrating summer with @brownsugarbbn. Stay blessed!’

In early May – the same day Jamie announced Nick Cannon and Kelly Osbourne would replace him and his daughter Corinne Foxx as hosts of ‘Beat Shazam’ – the actor broke his silence for the first time since his hospitalisation.

He said on Instagram: ‘Appreciate all the love!!! Feeling blessed.’

Presenter Nick, 42, recently stated Jamie would detail his medical condition when he was ready.

He told Extra TV: ‘One thing I’ve always respected about how Jamie’s moved throughout his entire career, if you’ve noticed, he’s always been somebody who is extremely professional and extremely private.

‘I mean, you don’t ever really hear anything other than just the great work that he puts forth as a professional and the fact that, you know, he’s handled this situation with the same manner, you only can respect that.

‘I believe when he’s ready, he’s going to address the awaiting fans in the world (about his health) the way that only he can.’

When asked if Jamie had suffered a stroke, ‘Masked Singer’ host Nick declined to give details on Jamie’s condition.

Jamie’s health scare came a few weeks after he returned to the set of the trouble-hit thriller ‘Back in Action’, amid reports he had a ‘meltdown’ that allegedly caused his co-star Cameron Diaz, 50, to want to quit acting again, though the pair were photographed days later in a return to filming.
