Uma Thurman was in high spirits on Thursday while leaving a New York courthouse after settling a custody battle with her ex-fiancé Arpad Busson.

The actress was all smiles, blowing kisses at reporters as she exited the hearing, PageSix reports.

Busson, 52, sued Thurman, 45, in 2014 in order to spend more time with their 3-year-old daughter, Luna.

However, it appears the former couple was able to work through their differences and come up with a plan upon their hearing Thursday.

Manhattan Supreme Court Justice Matthew Cooper praised them. "Everybody compromised a bit," he said, according to PageSix. "I think it was all done to make one person happy and that one person is Luna."

While details of their settlement remain confidential, the two signed a 3-year contract on how to co-parent their daughter.

Busso also seemed pleased with hearing as he, too, left the courthouse with a smile, giving reporters two thumbs up.

Thurman and Busso were originally engaged in 2008 before splitting briefly in 2009. They welcomed their daughter in 2012, but broke up again for good in 2014.

The Kill Bill actress has most recently been linked to another former fling, ex-boyfriend Andre Balazs, who she famously dated after divorcing Ethan Hawke.

The former couple was spotted splashing around in the ocean during a trip to St. Barts in March. They were photographed sipping wine and exchanging some PDA. At one point, Thurman even nibbled on his ear!

Before that, Thurman was married to Gary Oldman from 1990 until 1992. Then, in 1998, she married Hawke with whom she shares two children, their daughter Maya and son Levon. The couple divorced seven years later, in 2005.
