While appearing on YouTuber Logan Paul's podcast "Implausive," Kevin Hart shared that, though he isn't privy to the "exact details" of Foxx's situation, he knows the actor is recovering.

"Jamie's always been a private person to a certain degree, but I think the dope thing is that he's getting better in his situation and everybody's prayers, everybody's love, energy, all that stuff is seen and felt," Hart said on the podcast, published Tuesday. "You just want the guy to get out of the situation and to get back home."

Cannon added: "He's awake. They say he's alert, so we love it. That's family right there."

In the statement posted on Corinne Foxx's Instagram on April 12, the Foxx family revealed the actor "experienced a medical complication" and is recovering.
