Stevie Nicks has revealed more about her broken relationship with former Fleetwood Mac bandmate Lindsey Buckingham.
In a new interview with Rolling Stone, Nicks reveals the last time she spoke with Buckingham was at the celebration of life for late bandmate Christine McVie.
“The only time I’ve spoken to Lindsey was there, for about three minutes,” she said. “I dealt with Lindsey for as long as I could. You could not say that I did not give him more than 300 million chances.”
When asked if she regrets not cutting ties with Buckingham sooner, Nicks said: “No, I think that all just happened the way it should have. It happened one night, not planned, at a MusiCares [benefit concert]. I didn’t even tell anybody it had happened in my head until the whole ceremony was over. I took with me that night a song that I had done with LeAnn Rimes called “Borrowed.” I took it with me to play for him because I thought we could do this song beautifully.”
She continued, “That’s when he wasn’t very nice to anybody; he wasn’t very nice to Harry Styles. I could hear my mom saying, ‘Are you really going to spend the next 15 years of your life with this man?’ I could hear my very pragmatic father — and by the way, my mom and dad liked Lindsey a lot — saying, ‘It’s time for you guys to get a divorce.’ Between those two, I said, ‘I’m done.’”
