The last time this didn't happen was at the Mutua Madrid Open 2024 when both were eliminated in the quarterfinals, with the Italian withdrawing from the match due to physical discomforts. The previous highest streak in this regard was the 15 tournaments won by Federer or Nadal between March 2006 and August 2006.
