Jamie Foxx Says He ‘Would Not Be Here’ Without His Sister in Instagram Post

Jamie Foxx is expressing his gratitude for his sister Diedra Dixon claiming he “would not be here’ without her.

The 55-year-old actor posted a heartfelt post on social media this past Tuesday in honor of Dixon’s birthday.

“Happy birthday to my beautiful for sister @frequency11 ‘D’… you are magical you are beautiful you are the courageous lionesses #leoseason,” Foxx wrote. “And without you I would not be here … had you not made the decisions that you made I would’ve lost my life.”

“I love you forever and ever happy birthday sis,” he concluded, inviting fans to swipe left for more photos of the birthday gal.

Foxx had a younger sister who passed on October 19th, 2020 at the age of 36.

This is the first post Foxx shard on Instagram since July 22nd when he addressed his health emergency.

The Academy Award winner thanked his sister and daughter Corinne Foxx for their protection during his recovery.

“To be honest with you, my sister Deidra Dixon, my daughter Corinne Marie saved my life,” Foxx said as he discussed the medical complication he suffered April 11 on set in Atlanta.

“So today, and to God, to a lot of great medical people, I’m able to leave you this video. I cannot tell you how great it feels to have your family kick in in such a way,” the actor continued, adding, “And y’all know they kept it airtight, didn’t let nothing out. They protected me and that’s what I hope that everyone could have and moments like these.”

In the video, the star also revealed why he did not want people to share about his medical scare in the hospital.

“I went through something that I thought I would never ever go through,” Foxx shared. “I know a lot of people were waiting and you know wanting to hear updates but to be honest with you I just didn’t want you to see me like that man.”

The actor also took a moment to put down rumors about his health.

“Now you know by being quiet sometimes things you know get out of hand,” the actor said as he referred to people saying he was “blind” and “paralyzed,” which he confirmed was false.

“But I did go through … I went to hell and back,” Foxx said. “And my road to recovery had some potholes as well. But I’m coming back. And I’m able to work.”
