Uma Thurman and her boyfriend, hotelier Andre Balazs, have split up after a nearly two-year romance. Balazs runs a hotel empire including celebrity hangouts such as the Mercer in New York and the Chateau Marmont and Standard hotel on LA’s Sunset Strip.

Thurman and Balazs have been dating since 2004. The two purchased a mansion together in Hyde Park, NY in November of 2004, and also shared a loft apartment in SoHo near the Mercer Hotel. Most recently, they spent their Christmas holidays in the French Caribbean.

Thurman may have put off splitting up as long as possible. She seems to feel lost without a partner, and compared being alone to losing a part of herself:

The stunning Thurman, who split from husband Ethan Hawke in 2004 after he cheated on her with a Canadian waitress, said last year that she was smitten with the hotel honcho and confessed that she would find it hard if she wasn’t in a relationship.

“I’m with a wonderful man who’s been there for me - that’s something very unusual for me,” she gushed of Balazs in an interview last year. “I’m very happy. I couldn’t live without any of my essential organs.”

At the 2/26 release party for a pop psychology book, Thurman also admitted that she was what the author categorized as a “Denial” type, and that she prefers to pretend things are fine in a crisis.

The two were photographed on February 22 (shown above) sharing a kiss that was clearly one-sided.
