Luna Thurman-Busson is the daughter of American actress and former model, Uma Karuna Thurman, and her multi-millionaire ex-fiance, Arpad Busson. She is the only child of her parents.
Her mother has been featured in many movies like Kill Bill (2003-2004), My Super Ex-Girlfriend (2006), Motherhood (2009), and Hollywood Stargirl (2022). Her father, on the other hand, is a social worker, philanthropist, and financier in the United States.
The Celebrity Child Has Five Names
Luna Thurman-Busson was born on July 15, 2012, in Massachusetts, to Una Thurman and Arpad Busson. She became famous after she was given five different names at birth. Her full name is Rosalind Arusha Arkadina Altalune Florence Thurman-Busson.
Her mother revealed that it was her first daughter, Maya’s idea to give her all those names because she is the last child, and is only fair to give her all the names she ever wanted to name her children. After giving her all those names, they could not agree on a name to call her, hence, they decided to call her Luna.
As a child, she does not have access to social media yet, so the only information available about the 12-year-old is what her parents put out.
Luna Thurman-Busson Parents Never Got Married
Luna’s parents were never married. They met in 2007, after her mother, Uma Thurman got divorced from actor, Ethan Hawke. Uma and Arpad began dating in 2007 and they got engaged a year later.
Unfortunately, the engagement did not lead to marriage as they broke up 6 years later, in April 2014. Luna was almost 2 years old at the time.
The 12-Year-Old’s Parents Battled for Her Custody
After her parents break up, her father, Arpad Busson filed for an emergency order for her custody, at the Manhattan Supreme Court under the jurisdiction of Justice Matthew Cooper. The case ended in 2017, after lasting for 3years.
While the trial was ongoing, Luna’s father missed court hearings. Her mother, on the other hand, claimed that she had a hard time while they were together. She added that he would throw a lot of tantrums in the presence of her children.
Uma revealed that in 2009, she had to cancel a trip after her eldest daughter, Maya was involved in an accident. He had an angry outburst and yelled throughout the house, in the presence of the children.
She also added that while she was pregnant with Luna, Arpad said she couldn’t bear the Thurman last name, be a U.S. citizen or have a U.S. passport. He insisted that she would be raised catholic not minding her opinion on the matter.
Subsequently, the court granted Luna’s custody to her mother, Uma.

She is the Only Child of Her Parents
Although she is the only child of her parents, Luna has 2 half-siblings each from both parents’ previous relationships. She has two older brothers from her father, Arapad Flyn Alexander Busson, and Aurelius CY Andrea Busson, both models. They share a strong bond with their little sister and nicknamed her “Lulu”.
Similarly, she has an older sister and brother from her mother’s marriage to Stranger Things actor, Ethan Hawke. Her oldest sister, Maya Hawke, is a singer-songwriter, actress, and model. Her brother Levon Roan Hawke is also a model.
Luna Thurman-Busson is a Good Swimmer
Luna Thurman-Busson is a good swimmer. She was taught to swim by her mother, even before she learned how to walk. Her mother has posted a couple of pictures of both of them swimming in the Hudson River.
Similarly, she posted an old picture of Luna as a toddler, floating on water, showing that she had always been a good swimmer.
The celebrity child is still in her early and formative stages, as a result, she is yet to choose a career path for herself. Will she choose to be an actress and model like her mother, or a social worker and philanthropist like her father? We’re hopeful that whatever path she chooses, she will receive much-needed support from both parents.
