It's been a long road to recovery for Jamie Foxx, and it sounds like it might even be more intense than we thought. According to a source close to the comedian, Jamie is learning how to walk again in a rehab facility after battling a mystery illness for months.

Jamie is reportedly in a rehab facility in Chicago.
According to what an insider close to the actor tells Radar Online, Jamie has a lot to overcome while he recovers from an incident that took place in April.
"Jamie is receiving treatment at one of the top physical rehabilitation centers in the country," the source said. "The clinic specializes in physical therapy programs to treat injuries or a physical condition that limits or prohibits the ability to walk or walk correctly."
The clinic remains nameless.
Radar Online reported that, as a news outlet, it is choosing not to disclose the exact clinic where Jamie is being treated but noted that it specializes in stroke, brain injuries, and spinal cord injuries.
"Jamie would not be at this clinic if he was not impaired in some way as a result of whatever happened to him. But fans should rest assured: Jamie is in the best of care at this type of clinic," the source said.
Recently, there have been a lot of rumors about what caused Jamie's medical crisis.
While appearing on Dr. Drew Pinsky's podcast, journalist AJ Benza claimed that Jamie's current medical situation was caused by the COVID-19 vaccine, though his claims so far are unsubstantiated.
"Jamie had a blood clot in his brain after he got the shot. He did not want the shot, but the movie he was on, he was pressured to get it," he claimed. "The blood clot in the brain caused him at that point to be partially paralyzed and blind."
In May, Jamie's daughter shared an update on her father's condition.
In a post she shared on her Instagram Stories (via People) on May 12, Corrine Foxx wrote, "Update from the family: Sad to see how the media runs wild. My Dad has been out of the hospital for weeks, recuperating."
She even claimed he had been playing pickleball the day before.

Here's hoping Jamie is recovering well.
It makes sense that his family wants to keep whatever struggle Jamie is going through as private as possible, but it's also understandable that fans would be worried about his health with so little information being out there.
Fingers crossed that Jamie is well on his way to recovering and that another update will be shared by his family soon.
