Born Eric Marlon Bishop, Jamie Foxx, is reportedly preparing for a major new chapter in his personal life after reconnecting with Alyce Huckstepp months after their split. The actor and comedian is said to be expecting a baby with Huckstepp. This will mark his third child and her first pregnancy. The news arrives after the pair subtly rekindled their romance following their reported breakup earlier in 2025.

Jamie Foxx and Alyce Huckstepp Reignite Romance

According to TMZ, Jamie Foxx and Alyce Huckstepp are expecting a child together after getting back together sometime last year following a temporary split in January 2025. Sources with direct knowledge told the outlet that Huckstepp is already several months pregnant. However, details such as the baby’s due date and gender remain unknown.

The couple first sparked dating rumors in August 2023 after they were seen dining together with friends at Nobu in Malibu. Their romance quickly drew attention, especially because Foxx has long kept his dating life away from the spotlight.

Their relationship reportedly became more serious during Labor Day weekend in 2023 when they vacationed together in Cabo. Photos obtained by Page Six showed the pair walking side by side in matching sweatsuits while enjoying time away together.

The comedian and Huckstepp were initially linked publicly after she attended the premiere of his Netflix movie “Day Shift” in 2022. Though she appeared on the red carpet, the two did not pose together at the event.

Their relationship later became more visible as Huckstepp accompanied Foxx during different professional appearances and events. She was reportedly present during the filming of a BetMGM commercial in 2023. One source described the pair as looking comfortable together.

“They seemed cozy,” a source told PEOPLE. “[Foxx] had people around but they weren’t surrounding him or keeping him away from the rest of the set and crew and actors.”

Despite the occasional public appearance, the pair mostly kept their relationship private. Multiple outlets reported in January 2025 that the couple had ended their relationship after dating for more than a year. Still, the split apparently did not last long.

The latest pregnancy report suggests the two quietly reconciled away from public attention before deciding to expand their family together.

Alyce Huckstepp Stayed Away From The Spotlight

Unlike Jamie Foxx, Alyce Huckstepp has largely stayed out of Hollywood’s public-facing culture. She does not appear to maintain an active social media presence and has rarely spoken publicly about her relationship with the Oscar-winning actor.

The 58-year-old has long been known for protecting his private life despite decades of fame.

“Jamie, especially, is very low key about his life in general, and rarely talks about it,” a source previously told PEOPLE in 2018. “He is not one to acknowledge anything about his private life.”

That approach continued throughout his relationship with the fitness model. While fans occasionally spotted them together during outings or vacations, they avoided discussing their romance publicly.

Their relationship became more visible again in October 2024 when Huckstepp attended the Atlanta taping of Foxx’s Netflix comedy special “Jamie Foxx: What Had Happened Was…” She was seen in a video posted by Gayle King raising a toast in support of the actor, who suffered a serious medical emergency in 2023.

Foxx’s health scare had worried fans worldwide at the time, and many noticed Huckstepp’s support during his recovery period.

The pregnancy news now signals an even deeper commitment between the pair after weathering both personal and public challenges together.

Jamie Foxx Previously Opened Up About Marriage and Family

The reported baby on the way will become Jamie Foxx’s third child. The actor first became a father in 1994 when his former partner Connie Kline gave birth to their daughter, Corinne Foxx.

Years later, Foxx welcomed his second daughter, Anelise Bishop, with former partner Kristin Grannis in 2008.

Though Foxx has embraced fatherhood throughout his life, he has openly admitted that marriage was never something he strongly believed in for himself.

In his 2021 memoir “Act Like You Got Some Sense,” the actor reflected honestly on his views about relationships and raising children.

“I’ve just never been convinced that marriage was a good idea for me,” Foxx wrote. “I’ve had friends that have great marriages, others not so much. And it never seemed like marriage was necessary to raise my children in a safe and loving atmosphere.”

The comment drew attention at the time because Foxx had previously dated several high-profile women, including actress Katie Holmes, while consistently avoiding public discussions about settling down.

Even with his reluctance toward marriage, Foxx has maintained close relationships with his children and frequently praised fatherhood during interviews and public appearances.

The new pregnancy report comes during a period when the actor appears to be rebuilding momentum both personally and professionally following his health crisis in 2023. Fans have recently seen him return to public events, filming projects, and comedy performances after spending months recovering out of the spotlight.

Now, with reports of a baby on the way and his relationship with Alyce Huckstepp seemingly back on track, the Django Unchained actor appears to be entering another major turning point in his life.
