Let’s talk about change. Lindsey Buckingham, the legendary guitarist from Fleetwood Mac, is stepping into a new chapter in life. His wife of 21 years, Kristen Messner, has officially filed for divorce, as confirmed by Closer Weekly. The couple, who tied the knot back in 2000, are now parting ways, marking the end of a long and storied relationship.
After Two Decades, Kristen Messner Seeks Divorce
After more than two decades together, Kristen Messner has taken the step to dissolve her marriage to Lindsey Buckingham. While the exact reasons behind the split remain private, this decision marks a significant shift in both of their lives. As of now, it’s unclear if the legendary "Dreams" musician, now 71 years old, and the beautiful blonde Kristen have discussed any terms of their separation. But life has a way of surprising us, doesn’t it?
Family Ties: The Buckingham Kids
Lindsey and Kristen’s union brought three beautiful children into the world: William Gregory Buckingham, 22, Leelee Buckingham, 21, and Stella Buckingham, 17. Given that most of their kids are now adults, there may not be significant custody issues to navigate. That being said, the emotional side of things is never straightforward. Family dynamics can be tricky, even when the logistics seem simple.

A Journey Through Time
For Lindsey Buckingham, this marks his first experience with divorce. He married Kristen in 2000, making this his only marriage thus far. Looking back, Lindsey spent much of his early adulthood on the road, touring the world as a musician. Back then, marriage and family weren’t high on his list of priorities. But life has a funny way of surprising us, doesn’t it?
That all changed when Lindsey met Kristen in the 1990s. She was photographing him for the cover of one of his solo albums, and something clicked. Speaking with the Las Vegas Review-Journal in October 2011, Lindsey opened up about how grateful he was to find love later in life. He shared that he’d had his fair share of "crazy girlfriends" in the past, but none of them felt quite right. He wasn’t in a rush to settle down, and frankly, he wasn’t sure if he ever would.
