Jamie Foxx spoke candidly about becoming a dad again while on Jimmy Kimmel Live this week.
The 58-year-old father of two is currently awaiting the birth of his third child, and his first with 31-year-old girlfriend Alyce Huckstepp.
Foxx told Kimmel, also 58, on Tuesday: ‘I got a baby on the way… still got it!’
He added that he is ‘about to be back in the drop-off line,’ noting: ‘I wasn’t on the fence about it, but being 58… you know what I’m saying?’
The actor went on to mention Al Pacino, who welcomed son Roman with Noor Alfallah, 32, in 2023 when he was 83.
‘I did run into Al Pacino, so if I was ever on the fence, I wasn’t on the fence when I talked to him,’ Foxx shared.

Elsewhere in the interview, he joked: ‘I even tell my girl, “Look, just hang in there for 12 years.” If I’m 58, in 12 years I’ll be 70… you’ll just put a blanket over my thighs, give me some tapioca pudding…’
The comedian shares daughters Corinne, 32, with ex-girlfriend Connie Kline, and Anelise, 18, with Kristin Grannis.
Foxx began dating Huckstepp, an Australian former fitness model, in 2022.
He announced his split from the blonde beauty in January 2025, but they rekindled their romance months later.
This past June, the star was joined by Anelise at the 2026 BET Awards in Los Angeles.
The father-daughter duo took the stage together to play the intro of Kehlani’s hit song Folded on the piano.
The Django Unchained actor revealed in his 2024 Netflix special that he suffered a stroke from a brain bleed in 2023, causing him to lose his memory for 20 days.
Opening up about the terrifying ordeal in Jamie Foxx: What Happened Was…, he called Anelise his ‘spiritual defibrillator.’

He began: ‘They said at one point, the first 15 days, they thought they were going to lose me because my vitals were out of control.
‘There was a 13 or 14-day period where they said, “We’ve gotta keep him calm and we’ve given him every medication that they could. It’s not working, we gotta keep him calm because his vitals are so high we’re going to lose him.”‘
He continued: ‘That’s when a miracle happened – and that miracle was working through my youngest daughter.’
Foxx said that Anelise snuck into his hospital room with her guitar, and his vitals inexplicably lowered.
‘The nurses at the nurses’ station were baffled. Like, “Wow what did they give him?” They rushed into the room and [my daughter] said, “Shh. I got him.”
‘Do you know what I found out? That God was in that guitar. That’s my spiritual defibrillator.’
During the heartfelt moment, Anelise emerged on stage with her guitar as the proud dad said: ‘Thank you for stepping up when all was lost.’
