Stevie Nicks and Lindsey Buckingham spark fan frenzy about Fleetwood Mac reunion after cryptic new posts
Fleetwood Mac members Stevie Nicks and Lindsey Buckingham appear to be ready to move past their decades-long feud - with fans speculating they may have reconciled after uploading cryptic social media posts.
Both Nicks, 77, and Buckingham, 75, took to Instagram to share lyrics from their song Frozen Love, which they released under their pop-duo group Buckingham Nicks in 1973.
'And if you go forward…' Nicks' graphic read. Then, only half an hour later, Buckingham shared his own picture, with the line, 'I'll meet you there.'
The move did not go unnoticed by frenzied fans - who rushed to social media to speculate over what it could mean.
'MY DIVORCED PARENTS ARE BACK TOGETHER,' one fan cheered.
'Stevie Nicks getting back together with her situationship of over 50 years despite both of them getting married to other people and living separate lives for decades gives me hope,' joked another.
Someone else wrote: 'I cannot handle the prospect of my queen, Stevie Nicks, reuniting with Lindsay Buckingham.'
Some fans speculated they could be working on a creative project together, perhaps even a new album.
'Fleetwood Mac reunion in 2025?? A girl can dream,' another wistfully wrote.
'Our minds are exploding! Are you remastering BN or is this our dreams coming true!' gushed someone else.
On Wednesday, Mick Fleetwood, the co-founder and drummer of the band, shared an Instagram video of himself listening to Frozen Love, captioning the post: 'Magic then, magic now.'
After hearing the song in the '70s, Fleetwood asked the duo to join his band.
Earlier in the month, the pair started following each other on Instagram with eagle-eyed fans immediately noticing.
'Stevie Nicks and Lindsey Buckingham following each other in the year of 2025, after their fallout is proof that it's NEVER OVER and you can have a 60-year-old situationship with your ex!' one user joked.
Nicks was romantically linked to Buckingham, Fleetwood Mac's lead guitarist and co-lead vocalist, from 1972 to 1976.
Both Nicks, 77, and Buckingham, 75, took to Instagram to share lyrics from their song Frozen Love, which they released under their pop-duo group Buckingham Nicks in 1973
The pair met at Menlo-Atherton High School in California, when Nicks was a senior and Buckingham a junior.
The duo joined Fleetwood Mac in 1975, which went on to become one of the most successful bands in history, alongside Mick Fleetwood, Christine McVie and John McVie.
Ahead of the band's landmark album Rumours, which was released in 1977 and earned them a Grammy, the couple ended their love affair.
'I don't even remember what the issues were, I just know that it got to the point where I wanted to be by myself,' Nicks told Rolling Stone of the split.
'It just wasn't good anymore, wasn't fun anymore, wasn't good for either of us anymore. I'm just the one who stopped it.'
According to Mick Fleetwood, when the duo first joined the band, Buckingham had' control' over Nicks, observing that 'very slowly' he began to 'lose it.'
'He really didn't like it,' Stephen Davis, who penned Nicks' biography Gold Dust Woman, wrote.
David wrote that Buckingham was jealous that Nicks' songs titled Rhiannon and Landslide - written about their fading romance - were more popular than his own.
Nicks was also linked to Fleetwood Mac's drummer Mick Fleetwood in 1978. In 1979, the singer had an abortion after becoming pregnant by Eagles drummer Don Henley.
In an interview with The Guardian in 2011, Nicks reflected on the end of her relationship with Buckingham.
She told the publication that had Fleetwood Mac, fame and drugs not become part of their lives, she believes the couple would have stayed together.
'We would have married and had children because we were headed that way. We didn't really mess up till we moved to Los Angeles. And that was when the whole world just ripped us apart,' she told the publication.
The former couple have continued to clash - even now they are both in their seventies.
After leaving Fleetwood Mac in 1987, Buckingham rejoined in 1997 and stayed with them until his firing more than two decades later in 2018. He was replaced by Mike Campbell from Tom Petty And The Heartbreakers and Neil Finn of Crowded House.
However, he blamed both Nicks and manager Irving Azoff for his abrupt removal in January 2018.
In an interview with the Los Angeles Times, he said Nicks gave the rest of the band an ultimatum - either he goes or she goes, following his request that the band delay an upcoming 2018 tour by three months so he could promote his latest solo album.
The band released 17 studio albums during their career, with Say You Will (2003) serving as their final release that debut at number three in the U.S. and number six in the UK.
Fleetwood Mac have sold more than 120 million records worldwide, making them one of the world's best-selling bands of all time.

Later taking to TikTok Charli showed off her leggy Vivienne Westwood wedding dress, which she teamed with shades and strutted into view before turning on her heels and exiting. She joked: 'When George isn't crying when he sees me walking down the aisle' only to reassure followers in the caption that the drummer 'luckily did'. The 360 hitmaker also shared a glimpse of the couple's wild afterparty which saw her changing into a second white dress, this time from Nova Cora and costing a cool £3,300, as she celebrated her newlywed status with pals. Larking around George modelled his new wife's veil while puffing on a cigarette and showcasing his buff physique beneath an open silk shirt. The gang partied and danced the night away to Charli's music, captioning the clip: 'Bridal party energy!'. On her big day Charli was the epitome of style in the white mini dress which boasted a plunging boat neckline and draped detailing that she wore with a traditional veil. Slipping her feet into Jimmy Choo heels, the singer kept her long black hair loose and carried a bouquet of white flowers. Meanwhile George wore a dark double breasted suit over a light open collared shirt with a flower, that matched his wife's bouquet, in his button hole. The newlyweds posed for sweet snaps with the songstress' proud parents Jon and Shameera Aitchison. Following the wedding the couple reportedly headed to nearby by Italian restaurant Dalla where they dined alfresco and sipped Aperol Spritz before heading to their evening bash at Ellie's bar in Dalston. A source told The Sun: 'Charli's wedding reception was the epitome of Brat. Her and George wanted to keep it very cool, so they shunned cars and walked down Hackney High Street to get to Dalla'. 'The restaurant had closed for them and they had a massive family style meal with loads of pasta and champagne. Thankfully the groom was blown away by Charli's stunning look Before adding: 'People walking past were stunned when they saw Charli and George having a cheeky pre-dinner cigarette outside;. It turns out bandmate Matty was in LA for the screening of I Know What You Did Last Summer, in which his fiancée Gabbriette Bechtel stars in. On Friday evening, the singer was spotted arriving at the venue dressed in a leather jacket over a white top with a red lightning bolt, paired with blue jeans. Matty, who has been linked to Gabbriette since September 2023, appeared in good spirits as he left his vehicle and headed into the event. MailOnline has contacted George and Matty's representatives for comment. Despite his absence Matty reportedly attended his pal's stag do earlier this week which took place in Ibiza. According to The Sun, the drummer and frontman Matty, 36, flew out to the party island on Tuesday for a short but wild getaway. Its also been revealed that the couple seemingly carried the low key theme into the bride's wedding ring which has been valued at relatively modest £10,000, despite her reported £10million fortune. The band seemingly boasts a bold twisted, overlapping design and in platinum it perfectly matches her engagement ring, which is worth £15,000. Laura Taylor from Lorel Diomands told MailOnline: 'Charli's wedding band is where she's really made it her own. Rather than going for a traditional band to sit next to the solitaire, or even an eternity band like we're seeing with other celebrities, she's chosen something much bolder'. 'It's chunky and very different to the delicate bands you usually see paired with solitaires. We are starting to see more celebrities choosing bold rings this year, like Dua Lipa and her chunky engagement ring'. 'I'd estimate Charli's wedding band to be worth around £8,000 to £10,000, depending on the designer. 'The choice fits perfectly with the rest of her wedding look, as she wore a short white dress and sunglasses to her ceremony, skipping the usual formal bridal style. By pairing a classic engagement ring with a heavier, statement wedding band,' Before adding: 'Charli's showing you don't have to follow the usual rules. It's a really good example of how you can incorporate your own personal style.'

Read the bizarre 'anti-bridezilla clause' hidden in my wedding DJ's contract: 'Unhinged'
A bride-to-be was left stunned by a peculiar clause contained within a contract from a prospective wedding DJ. The American woman, who is planning her upcoming big day, recently shared her experience after being 'referred' to a local DJ who had 'great reviews'. But after enduring an epic three-hours long 'intro Zoom' online meeting with the wedding day musician, she received a bizarre contract from him the following day. Posting sections of the strangely punctuated contract to Reddit 's 'Wedding Shaming' thread, the most peculiar inclusion was an 'Anti-Bridezilla Clause'. The clause included on the fourth and final page of the contract read: 'You Agree not to become a Bridezilla, have a Temper-tantrum, a Crying Fit, become MeloDramatic, become Hyper-Selfish, Throw things, or engage in Any Defamation.' A bracketed sentence underneath the 'Anti-Bridezilla Clause' added: '95% of our Couples are Reasonably Mature; we are really trying to Weed Out/Prevent the Bottom 5%'. Perhaps unsurprisingly, the woman later revealed that she and her finance did not book the wedding musician. But the outlandish clause was only the tip of the iceberg within the confounding four-page agreement document. It included assurances that the DJ was not 'Cheesy', 'Generic' or 'Hyperactive' - unlike others in the profession The contract included extraordinary details about the DJs service being unlike others in the profession who 'just come & Blast Generic Cheesy Line Dances & rap all night'. It also detailed the DJs assurance to not 'Show Off' or be 'Hyperactive' throughout the nuptials - even detailing their 'classy' planned outfit of a 'Navy Blue Blazer & Bowtie'. The unnamed DJ also pledged to 'Do my Best to be Easy-To-Talk-To & a Joy-To-Work-With unlike most DJs that have Hidden Attitude Problems'. The contract saw the DJ confirm that 'unlike many DJS who try to 'pick up chicks at gigs', I will be treating your guests with Respect as a Classy DJ'. The final price on the contract listed a Security Deposit of $1745 and a remaining balance payment of $900. In reply to the Reddit post, commenters had a field day picking apart not just the 'Anti-Bridezilla Clause' but other outrageous elements such as the extreme clauses, sales-y wording and unusual syntax. One Redditor reflected on the entire unorthodox document: 'The capitals. The "1990s infomercial" tone. The content and list of services that is just on the functional side of unhinged.' A second person wrote: 'The first two pages of this is just an ad... Get to the point without all the hard sell and badmouthing your competitors.' Another jokingly added: 'And don't forget he will be "classy" not "cheesy" like all those other drunk, obnoxious , women chasing DJ's'. A concluding point in the contact even saw the DJ offer to take on wedding planning duties for the big day as an added value feature. To this point, one person replied: 'That is absolutely unhinged.' Others failed to see the funny side of it all, identifying that the document had a 'general creepiness' to it and contained 'so many scare quotes'. Specifically in reference to the 'anti-bridezilla' clause, some commenters felt it was 'kind of misogynistic'. To this point, one commenter replied: 'If I got this contract and all the madness before hadn't thrown me off yet, that casual misogyny would be the part where any chance if me hiring that guy would go straight out the window.' The original poster agreed with one commenter who noted that the over the top agreement document read like a 'manifesto'. The bride added: 'That's how we felt. Half ransom note/half manifesto.'
