In December 2023, as the couple got engaged, Corinne Foxx shared a heartfelt message for her partner: “From the first time I saw you, I knew you were my forever 💍❤️.”

Along with her touching words, she posted several black-and-white photos capturing their affectionate moments. In these images, Corinne showcased her stunning engagement ring, featuring a large solitaire emerald-cut diamond set on a delicate diamond band.

Jamie Foxx, who shares Corinne with ex-wife Connie Klein, celebrated the engagement news by posting a heartfelt tribute to his daughter and future son-in-law on his Instagram.

Accompanying images from the same black-and-white engagement shoot, he reflected on the special bond between the couple, both graduates of the University of Southern California.

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

Jamie also shared his emotional reaction to learning that Hooten planned to propose. “@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… 🙏🏾❤️,” he wrote, expressing his happiness that Corinne found her ideal partner in Hooten. “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 [sic],” he added. “@corinnefoxx you have a great soul in @joe.hooten. I LOVE YOU BOTH DEARLY.”

He ended his tribute with a lighthearted note, predicting he would need tissues during the ceremony, “I have my tissues ready 😭, #tearsofjoy." Jamie joined family and friends to celebrate the newly engaged couple at a party just before Christmas. Corinne shared photo highlights from the festive gathering on Instagram, captioning it, “Food, friends & family ❤️. So happy we got to celebrate this special time with our favorite people 💍💕.

Corinne first hinted at her relationship with Hooten, a writer-director and television executive for John Wells Productions, in September 2019, posting a photo of them with a horse at a stable. “Spent the weekend with a couple of studs 💕🐴🏔,” she quipped in the caption.

In October 2023, she shared a formal photo of the two in a carousel highlighting her September memories. Jamie shares Corinne with his ex, Connie Kline, and is also the father of a 15-year-old daughter, Anelise, with ex Kristin Grannis.
