16 february 2026 в 23:13
Uma Thurman has established herself in Hollywood, proving that she is here to stay. The actress is perhaps best known for her collaborations with Quentin Tarantino, playing Mia Wallace in «Pulp Fiction» and The Bride in «Kill Bill: Vol. 1» and «Vol. 2» (2003, 2004). However, in real life, her favorite role is likely that of a mother to three children.
Uma is known for her romance with actor Ethan Hawke, whom she met while filming «Gattaca» in 1997, and they married in 1998. They had two children, Maya and Levon, before divorcing in 2005. In 2012, Uma gave birth to another daughter, Luna, from her former fiancé, financier Arpad Busson.
In recent years, Uma has frequently appeared in public with her children at major events, including red carpets and film premieres. She recently attended Maya’s wedding, which took place on Valentine’s Day in 2026 in New York City, celebrating the occasion with family and close friends.
Learn more about Uma’s children, from oldest to youngest, below.
Following in her mother’s footsteps is Maya Hawke, born on July 8, 1998. Starting her career modeling for brands like Vogue, Calvin Klein, and AllSaints, she made her screen debut in 2017 as Jo in the BBC adaptation of «Little Women». However, her breakout role came as Robin, a worker at Scoops Ahoy, in the third season of «Stranger Things», - quickly becoming a fan favorite. She returned to this role in the fifth and final season, concluding the popular Netflix series. That same year, she had a small role in Quentin Tarantino’s «Once Upon a Time in… Hollywood», - truly following in her mother’s footsteps!
In 2023, Maya became the latest star to appear in a Wes Anderson film, joining the ensemble of «Asteroid City». She also starred alongside her mother and Samuel L. Jackson in the film «The Kill Room», - directed by Nicol Paone. Maya has also ventured into biographical films, portraying Jamie Bernstein in the 2023 film «Maestro», - Flannery O’Connor in «Wildcat», - and a «devoted Beatles fan» dreaming of meeting George Harrison in «Revolver» (a film with her father, Ethan Hawke).
In addition to continuing her acting career, Maya is also pursuing music. After releasing her first two singles in 2019, she released the albums «Blush» (2020), «Moss» (2022), and «Chaos Angel» (2024), receiving acclaim for her indie-folk sound and deep lyrics.
In February 2026, Maya reached an important personal milestone when she married musician Christian Lee Hutson in a ceremony on Valentine’s Day in New York City, attended by family and close friends.
Levon Hawke was born in 2002. He is not only following in the footsteps of his famous parents but also his sister, as he joined the cast of «Stranger Things» in the fourth season. After behind-the-scenes photos surfaced on social media of him in a punk-rock outfit, rumors began to circulate that Levon would appear in the show.
Maya soon dispelled the rumors. «My brother is not in the show!» she told RadioTimes.com. «He came to visit me. The COVID policy was very strict, as it should be, so the only way he could get on set was if he was dressed as an extra and passed a COVID test. And that day there were paparazzi, so they took his picture, and everyone shouted, 'Nepotism is at work again!' Guys, no! He’s not in the show, but you can see him once, in one shot. So, calm down, internet!»
Nevertheless, Levon has a role in several projects that were listed as post-production/completed in early 2023. One of them is «Pussy Island», - directed by Zoë Kravitz. «Frida is a young, smart waitress in Los Angeles who has her sights set on a prize: philanthropist and tech mogul Slater King (Channing Tatum). When she skillfully breaks into his inner circle and ultimately ends up at an intimate gathering on his private island, she is ready for the journey of her life. Despite the epic…»
