Despite his recent public appearances, Jamie Foxx is still said to be "not 100 per cent" following his hospitalisation in April following a mystery illness.
The 55-year-old's demise in health was said to have occurred while he was working on the Netflix film Back in Action. The incident required an extensive hospital stay for the Hollywood star and attendance at a physical rehab centre.
And while he was recently spotted waving and smiling at fans during several outings, it has now been claimed that he has a way to go on his health journey.
"Jamie is doing so much better, and he's starting to feel like himself again. He's not 100 per cent and is still taking things easy, but he's definitely on the road to recovery," a source said.
They went on to say that the Oscar winner "has a huge support system around him, and his friends and family are making sure that he doesn't take on too much."

While many fans quickly praised the actor's return, others still were running with the bizarre theory that it is, in fact, his body double.
