Actor and musician Jamie Foxx has reportedly ended his relationship with girlfriend Alyce Huckstepp after more than a year together.
56-year-old Foxx and Huckstepp were first linked in August 2023, only four months after the Oscar winner suffered a stroke while filming Back in Action in Atlanta.
The couple was seen dining at Nobu in Malibu, California, with a group of friends, and it marked the start of their public appearances together.

In recent months, the two were spotted enjoying a dinner outing in Los Angeles on September 28 as they walked together on a beach in Mexico on October 30.
According to reports, Huckstepp has always rallied behind Foxx, especially during his recovery from a serious health scare in April 2023.
In his December Netflix special, Jamie Foxx: What Had Happened Was …, the actor opened up on his health struggles and revealed he experienced a brain bleed that led to a stroke.
Huckstepp rarely attended public events with Foxx, but sources told PEOPLE she often played a part in supporting him behind the scenes.
During the filming of a BetMGM commercial last July, a source noted that Huckstepp spent time on set, though many were unaware of it. “They seemed cozy. Jamie had people around, but they weren’t keeping him away from the rest of the set and crew.”
The two had a fine bond, but their relationship has now met its unexpected end. Foxx and Huckstepp are however yet to publicly comment on the alleged split, and his fans are patiently eyeing how the matter unfolds in the end to validate these reports.
The news of the split comes during a busy period for Foxx, whose Netflix movie Back in Action—the same project he was filming during his medical emergency, premiered on January 17.

His comedy special dropped just last month, and it’s added to his packed schedule.
“Jamie is super busy, just the way he likes it,” a source told the outlet. “He has so much going on, he barely has time to stop and think about how blessed he is.”
Foxx appears to be keeping a positive outlook and is reportedly in good spirits despite the breakup. “He has been having a great time,” the source added.
Over the years, the actor has had a series of high-profile relationships. He shares two daughters with previous partners, Corinne Foxx, born in 1994 to Connie Kline, and Anelise Bishop, born to Kristin Grannis in 2008.
Jamie Foxx was also linked to Haitian actress Garcelle Beauvais and actress Leila Arcieri in the late 1990s and early 2000s.
