Lindsay Buckingham and Kristen Messner are leaving it. The former Fleetwood Mac singer and guitarist's wife of more than two decades filed for divorce in Los Angeles on June 2, ET can confirm.
The couple tied the knot in 2000. Buckingham, 71, and Messner, 50, have three children together, William, 22, Lily, 21, and Stella, 17.
In a 2011 interview with the Las Vegas Review Journal, Buckingham discussed how he waited "a long time" to meet Messner.
"I had a lot of crazy girlfriends, and a lot of them were a result of the lifestyle we were all leading," he said. "I saw a lot of friends who were parents and spouses - in previous decades - who weren't really there and spoiled their kids, and weren't there for their family situations. So I waited and I Was lucky to meet someone relatively late in life".
The news of Buckingham's divorce came after the announcement of her upcoming solo album, which is due out on September 17. The musician plans to go on a solo tour to promote the self-titled album This Fall and Winter.
My new self-titled album is one I’ve been intending to get out for a couple of years now, but on more than one occasion, unforeseen circumstances necessitated a postponement of plans. Now that we’re back in gear, I’m thrilled to finally be sharing new music with my listeners! pic.twitter.com/0LAL9bho7D
