Oscar-winning actor Jamie Foxx is known for his talent, charisma, and versatility on screen — but in a recent heartfelt revelation, the Ray star opened up about a different kind of role: being a father.
In a candid interview, Foxx reflected on the powerful influence his daughter, Corinne Foxx, has had on his life, particularly when it comes to patience, growth, and self-awareness.
“I’ve learned from her on how to be patient,” he shared. “There were times when I was getting things wrong, but naturally the way she is — she saved me.”
Foxx, who has always spoken openly about his love for his daughter, went deeper this time, acknowledging that fatherhood has been as much about learning as it is about leading. His admission of past mistakes and personal growth resonated with many fans, especially parents who understand the transformative power of raising a child.
The Emmy-nominated actor and his daughter have also built a professional bond, co-hosting the game show Beat Shazam and often appearing together at public events — showcasing a relationship grounded not just in love, but mutual respect.
Foxx’s words highlight a truth many parents know all too well: children often teach us just as much, if not more, than we teach them.
As one fan commented in response to the interview clip, “It takes strength to admit where you’ve stumbled. And it takes love to recognize the person who helped you stand again.”
