Actress Uma Thurman is engaged to marry the Swiss multi-millionaire ex-boyfriend of supermodel Elle MacPherson.

People magazine reported on its website that 'Pulp Fiction' star Thurman was now set to wed financier Arpad "Arki" Busson, who fathered two children with MacPherson before the couple split in 2005.

"I can confirm she is engaged," Thurman's spokesperson Stephen Huvane told People.

The wedding would be the third for Thurman, who was previously married to actor Ethan Hawke, with whom she has two children, before divorcing in 2003.

Thurman was also married to British actor Gary Oldman before the couple split in 1992.
