Fleetwood Mac Singer Lindsey Buckingham Demands Court Shut Down Estranged Wife's Plea For Spousal Support In Divorce
July 26 2021, Published 11:21 p.m. ET
Fleetwood Mac star Lindsey Buckingham is refusing to pay his estranged wife a dime as part of their nasty divorce battle.
According to court documents filed in his divorce, the rocker says his ex-Kristen Messner should not receive a dime in support.
Back in June, Buckingham’s wife filed for divorce after 21 years of marriage. The petition was filed in Los Angeles Superior Court. Messner and Buckingham share 3 children.
Their only minor child is 17-year-old Stella. Due to her age, it was believed child custody and support would not be an issue.
In newly filed documents, Buckingham goes hard against his ex-saying despite over two decades of marriage, she doesn’t deserve any spousal support. He also asked the court to award him joint legal and physical custody of their daughter.
He lists the date of separation as June 3, 2021. The date is one day after Messner filed her petition in court. Both listed irreconcilable differences as the reason for the divorce.
The singer is asking they both pay their own legal fees. He told the court “all assets, earnings, accumulations, and debts acquired by the parties after the date of marriage and before the date of separation, the exact extent, and nature of which are unknown to the respondent at this time”
It’s unclear if the two signed a prenuptial agreement before getting hitched, which would have laid out who got what in case of a split.

There are tens, if not hundreds, of millions on the line. The two met in the late ‘90s and married in 2000. Days before the divorce was filed, the Rockstar announced he was going on a nationwide tour.
The two have yet to reach any sort of settlement in the case and the judge has yet to rule.
