Fleetwood Mac’s estranged lovers Stevie Nicks and Lindsey Buckingham have caused fans to ‘crash out’ with a matching pair of social media posts.
The Landslide hitmakers have had a turbulent personal and professional relationship over the years, with the band’s chart-topping studio album Rumours written at the time of their breakup in the 70s.
The musical duo last performed on stage together in January 2018, with reports of a significant disagreement between the pair over their working schedule sealing the deal on their professional breakup.
After bandmate Christine McVie’s death in November 2022, the band seemed pretty set on never reuniting on stage, with Stevie focusing on her successful solo career.
In a pair of posts made to Instagram earlier today the lead singer, 77, and former guitarist, 75, seemed to imply the almost decade-long rupture might finally be at an end.
On Stevie’s account she posted the lyrics from 1973 hit Frozen Love: ‘And if you go forward’ which comes from Buckingham Nicks’ only album.
Then, Lindsey completed the line with his own post reading: ‘I’ll meet you there’.

There’s no denying the two posts are linked in style, theme and timing – leading fans to the conclusion that a longawaited reunion could finally be happening.
And everyone is spiralling.
‘Glad I was already planning on crashing out today!’ yogimagee wrote on Instagram.
‘IM GOING TO THROW UP WHATS HAPPENING,’ maddieshonholtz added.
‘WHAT DOES THIS MEAN’ stevienicksnation echoed.

Some are sepculating it could mean just a Buckingham Nicks reunion while others think the whole gang could be getting back together.
Regardless, everyone wants to see Lindsey and Stevie singing 1977 tune Silver Springs together live on stage after it recently went viral on TikTok in a trend recounting the pair’s heartwrenching romance.
‘Forget FM for a minute, just give us a Buckingham Nicks tour please,’ andymacphee comics declared.
‘Fleetwood Mac reunion in 2025?? A girl can dream,’ ahs_adn shared.

‘Tell us what’s happening before I completely crash out please and thank you,’ mejennamarie declared.
‘It feels amazing to be alive to witness the stars align like this, It was written,’ drimaued shared.
Whatever this is, a Fleetwood Mac reunion does still seem unlikely.
In June 2024, Stevie told Mojo magazine: ‘Without Christine, no can do… There is no chance of putting Fleetwood Mac back together in any way. Without her, it just couldn’t work.’
This doesn’t rule out an onstage reunion between just these two, however. Or it could just be their way of telling their fans that the hatchet has finally been buried – time will tell.
