Jamie Foxx, 58, takes to the tennis court ahead of birth of his third child… three years after shock stroke that left him hospitalized

Hollywood star Jamie Foxx brought his A-game to the tennis court this past weekend.

As the actor prepares to become a father for the third time, Foxx, 58, cleared his head with an invigorating round of tennis in Westlake, California, on Saturday.

The round appeared to be quite the sweat-inducing battle for Foxx, who used his T-shirt as a makeshift towel at one point.

And the match clearly brought out Foxx’s competitive side as he stood in ready position at the edge of the court, racket in hand, with determination on his face.

All the exercise must have produced some endorphins as Foxx was also seen flashing a pleased smile during a lull in the game.

The Daily Mail has contacted representatives for Foxx for comment but has not yet heard back.

The game comes amid a major personal milestone for Foxx.

The actor and his girlfriend Alyce Huckstepp are expecting their first child together, but for the actor, it will be his third child total.

In May, sources confirmed to TMZ that Foxx and Huckstepp are ‘already several months along’ in their pregnancy journey, after rekindling their romance last year.

The couple’s baby joy comes three years after Foxx almost died after he suffered a stroke caused by a bleed on the brain.

Foxx is already a father to two daughters. He welcomed Corinne, now 32, in 1994 with ex Connie Kline.

He shares Anelise, 17, with ex Kristin Grannis.

Foxx and Huckstepp first sparked up a romance in 2023 following Foxx’s six-year relationship with Dawson’s Creek star Katie Holmes, 47, which came to an end in 2019.

The Australian former fitness model and entrepreneur was a pillar of support to Foxx during his near-fatal health crisis later that year.

Huckstepp ‘was totally there for him when he got sick, and they got very close after that,’ a source told In Touch in March 2024.

Back in January 2025, a source close to Foxx told PEOPLE that he and Huckstepp were no longer together after dating for a year and a half.

However, three months later in April, they ramped up reconciliation rumors on a public outing together.

The couple’s baby joy comes three years after Foxx was rushed to A&E in April 2023 after suffering a mystery ‘medical complication,’ which his family decided to keep private at the time.

In December 2024, Foxx revealed exactly what happened to him and admitted he lost 20 days’ worth of memory and was unable to walk amid his terrifying health battle.

During an emotional scene on his Netflix special, What Had Happened Was… he recalled: ‘On April 11, I was having a bad headache, and I asked my boy for Aspirin.

‘I realised quickly that when you’re in a medical emergency, your boys don’t know what the f**k to do.’

Foxx then confessed: ‘I don’t remember 20 days.’

Becoming emotional, Foxx broke down in tears as he declared to the audience that he was ‘back’, adding: ‘You don’t know how good this feels.’

The Hollywood star went on to admit it’s still ‘a mystery’ what led to his brain bleed, adding: ‘We still don’t know exactly what happened to me.’

After starting his sentence with ‘What had happened was,’ Foxx broke down in tears and was comforted by the applauding audience.

He continued: ‘Your life doesn’t flash before you. It was kind of oddly peaceful. I saw the tunnel, but I didn’t see the light. It was hot in that tunnel.’

Foxx then quipped: ‘S**t, am I going to the wrong place?’

The Oscar-winning actor credited his sister Deidra with ‘saving his life’ after she drove him to Atlanta’s Piedmont Hospital, where he underwent a life-saving procedure.

Addressing why his family wanted to keep details of his health scare to themselves, he said: ‘I was dizzy from the stroke, so my head would bob around, and my family thought everyone would “meme the f***” out of me.”‘

Foxx went on to reveal that he vividly remembers waking up from his coma on May 4, and being unable to walk.

Yet Foxx didn’t want to believe he’d had a stroke and recounted his therapist telling him about his ego: ‘You need to kill the old Jamie so the new Jamie can thrive.’

He also reflected: ‘God blessed me with money and fame, but when I forgot about God, He blessed me with a stroke.’
