Jamie Foxx's eldest daughter, Corinne Foxx, officially tied the knot with her longtime partner, Joe Hooten. The intimate ceremony was held on Saturday, September 21, 2024. Jamie, who looked visibly emotional during the ceremony, walked his Beat Shazan co-host down the aisle.

Actress Garcelle Beauvais, from The Jamie Foxx Show, took to Instagram to share glimpses from the wedding, only to delete them shortly after. However, fans were quick to notice and spread the news like wildfire. The actor was seen clad in a black tuxedo, dancing with his daughter at the reception.


Who is Joe Hooten, Corinne Foxx's husband?

According to his supposed LinkedIn profile, Hooten is the Director of the Television Department at John Wells Productions. He also has a background in teaching, having worked at the University of Southern California and in finance when he had a brief stint at Maneeya Realty Co., Ltd. He earned his degree from the same university he taught at and from Florida State University.

According to Coverfly,

"Joseph Hooten is an award-winning writer-director and television executive (John Wells Prods) based in Los Angeles. He graduated from the USC School of Cinematic Arts in 2015 as a first-generation college student. He is passionate about telling emotional, provocative stories, often following unseen heroes or underdogs. Joe grew up in the Southern US. He's also dyslexic."

Corinne Foxx says she knew Hooten was her "forever" the first time she saw him

Garcelle Beauvais, 57, took to Instagram to share the happy news on September 22, penning:

"Last night we got to witness & celebrate the love of @corinnefoxx and @joe.hooten ❤️❤️. Your love & respect for each other is palpable 🙏🏽. Corinne you looked stunning."

In a series of photos, the bride is clad in an off-the-shoulder ensemble. Her gown has delicate floral detailing, and she kept things simple with a tulle veil. Her hair is in a bun, and she opted for pearl earrings to complement the gown.

Beauvais also posted an image with the lovebirds and Jamie and his current girlfriend, Alyce Huckstepp. Furthermore, she shared images of Jamie and Corinne Foxx walking down the aisle and their father-daughter dance. The two could be seen holding hands, and the elder Foxx looked visibly emotional.

Corinne Foxx announced their engagement in December 2023 with a carousel of B&W images of the two celebrating the big news. She showed off her new ring in what looked like a sizeable solitaire emerald-cut diamond resting over a thin band. The caption read:

"From the first time I saw you, I knew you were my forever 💍❤️."

While Foxx has not commented on the wedding thus far, he reveled in his daughter's engagement news. He took to Instagram to pen a heartfelt note to the two back in December 2023:

"You are a perfect example of what being in love is," the proud dad wrote. "You care about each other's life mental and physical… and you have each other’s back… congratulations on your engagement."

He recanted the instance of Hooten asking Foxx to take his daughter's hand in marriage.

"@joe.hooten when you whispered to me a while back that you were gonna ask my baby girl to marry you I had tears of joy in my soul… 🙏🏾❤️. And @corinnefoxx you have… and have always had a special place in my heart… you deserve love abundantly… so again congratulations you two… can’t wait to walk you down that isle...," Jamie wrote. "@corinnefoxx you have a great soul in @joe.hooten. I LOVE YOU BOTH DEARLY. I have my tissues ready #tearsofjoy."

Joe Hooten and Corinne Foxx met and started dating in 2018. They made their relationship Instagram official in September 2019 when Foxx posted an image of them at a horse stable. However, the two have opted to keep things on the quieter side. Only on occasion has Corinne Foxx given fans a sneak peek into their relationship. According to Pinkvilla, Joe popped the big question in December 2023 while on a deck.
