The Django Unchained star was spotted cruising down the Chicago river on a yacht while waving to fans.

According to TMZ, the actor was accompanied by a few other passengers on board the yacht.

Foxx’s daughter Corrine, 29, hit out at rumours suggesting the family were preparing for the worst after reports emerged about the actor’s health.

Amid the rumours in May, Corrine clarified that her dad had been 'out of the hospital for weeks' and is 'recuperating'.
