Jamie Foxx, the renowned actor, singer, and comedian, has announced that he will soon become a father for the third time. This upcoming addition to his family will be his first child with his girlfriend, Alyce Huckstepp. Foxx, who is currently 58 years old, is already a father to two daughters, Anelise and Corinne, from previous relationships.

Reports confirming Foxx’s exciting news have been shared by various outlets, with the initial scoop coming from TMZ. His daughters, 32-year-old Corinne and 17-year-old Anelise, are products of earlier partnerships; Corinne is from his relationship with ex-girlfriend Connie Kline, while Anelise is the daughter of Kristin Grannis.
The couple, Foxx and Huckstepp, were previously seen together during an outing in Miami last October. The appearance came just months after they ended their relationship, which began approximately a year and a half prior. Their Miami trip included a festive tour of the river and a meal at a local Greek restaurant, indicating a shared camaraderie despite their breakup.
Prior to their reunion, multiple sources hinted at the end of their relationship in January, a few months after Foxx’s busy schedule was further complicated by a slew of released projects, including his film “Back in Action” alongside Cameron Diaz and the Netflix special “Jamie Foxx: What Had Happened Was …”
Foxx’s work ethic has always been commendable, as friends have noted that he thrives on being busy. A source close to the actor shared with PEOPLE that Foxx is fully engaged in his career and feels genuinely grateful amidst the recent personal challenges he faced. Despite the breakup with Huckstepp, the actor has maintained a positive outlook, focusing on his professional responsibilities.
In an interview back in 2017, Foxx expressed his love for fatherhood and the joy it brings him. He spoke candidly about the challenges of raising daughters in Hollywood, saying, “In this business, sometimes it can get crazy. We’re so proud of them. They ended up being okay.” His reflections on fatherhood demonstrate a deep commitment to his family and a genuine affection for his children.
Foxx has repeatedly mentioned the joy he derives from hearing his daughters call him “dad”. He relished the moments when they light up upon seeing him and the satisfaction of guiding them through life’s challenges. His dedication to fatherhood is palpable and evident in his actions and words.
In a recent instance highlighting the strong bond with his daughters, Corinne took to social media in April 2023 to address a medical issue her father faced while filming. Foxx later revealed that he had suffered a “brain bleed that led to a stroke”, underlining the significant health scare he experienced last year. The celebrity’s vulnerability resonates with his followers and serves as a reminder of his human side amidst a thriving career.
Foxx’s daughters have proven to be his greatest supporters and steadfast advocates throughout his career. At the BET Awards in June 2025, he received the Ultimate Icon Honour, during which he emotionally expressed gratitude for Corinne and Anelise. In his heartfelt acceptance speech, he acknowledged the pivotal role they played in his life, famously stating they had “saved” him.
As Jamie Foxx prepares to welcome his third child, the enthusiasm within his family circles only grows. Balancing fame and fatherhood, he continues to demonstrate how family remains a priority in his life, even amidst the demands of a bustling career.
