Jamie Foxx became visibly emotional as he proudly walked his daughter, Corinne, down the aisle during her wedding over the weekend.

Corinne, 29, married her long-term partner, Joe Hooten, in a beautiful ceremony that gathered family, friends, and an impressive list of guests.

As Foxx escorted his daughter down the aisle, it was clear the moment had touched him deeply. The Oscar-winning actor appeared to be holding back tears, displaying a raw and heartfelt fatherly emotion as he prepared to give his daughter away in marriage.

The actor was all smiles as he approached the altar, but his struggle to contain his emotions was unmistakable.

Jamie Foxx, known for his strong bond with Corinne, has expressed his joy about his daughter’s relationship with Joe in the past. The couple announced their engagement in 2023, and Foxx shared his happiness publicly. He has always praised their love and how they supported each other, showing deep pride in their relationship.

The emotional moment during the ceremony may have carried additional weight for Foxx, who has faced health challenges in recent months. The 56-year-old actor was hospitalized in 2023, with a “medical complication” that led to weeks of recovery and rehab.

While details surrounding his condition remain largely private, Foxx has shared glimpses of his health journey, acknowledging that it was a serious and frightening experience.

In a video shared earlier this year, Foxx opened up briefly about his health scare, revealing that he had experienced a severe headache that led to him being out of commission for almost three weeks. Despite the seriousness of his condition, Foxx credited his family’s quick action and excellent medical care for his recovery.
