Uma Thurman Confirms Balazs Reunion  10/26/06

Hollywood beauty Uma Thurman has ended speculation over her on/off relationship with Andre Balazs, declaring the hotelier is "my boyfriend".

The actress, 36, officially split from the 48-year-old property tycoon in March (06) - but have been regularly spotted together in New York City since - where Thurman lives with her two children.

On Monday night (23OCT06), the couple confirmed they were an item when they attended a gala at Manhattan's Whitney Museum together and were happy to cuddle up on the red carpet.

Thurman enthused, "(I'm here because) I was invited by my boyfriend."

When told by a reporter the pair looked happy together, she declared, "We are."

Thurman and Balazs - owner of Hollywood's famed Chateau Marmont hotel - first started dating in December 2003, three months after the actress split from her now ex-husband Ethan Hawke.
