David Gilmour has stated he will never perform again with his former Pink Floyd bandmate Roger Waters, confirming the end of any hopes for a reunion. The two musicians have had a decades-long feud, which intensified after Gilmour's wife, Polly Samson, publicly accused Waters of antisemitism in 2023, with Gilmour supporting her claims. Waters has strongly denied these allegations, but the rift has only deepened, with both sides exchanging harsh words online and in interviews.

Recently, Waters has also faced controversy and possible legal action after expressing support for the now-banned group Palestine Action and criticizing the United Kingdom government and Israel. The Campaign Against Antisemitism has indicated it is ready to pursue prosecution if authorities do not act. Waters remains a vocal critic of Israel's policies and has continued to make provocative statements about international politics, further fueling public and legal scrutiny.

The last time Pink Floyd performed together was at the Live 8 concert in 2005, but Gilmour has now made it clear that such a reunion will not happen again. The ongoing personal and political disputes between Gilmour and Waters have cemented the band's split, marking the end of an era for fans hoping for reconciliation.
