For decades, Stevie Nicks and Lindsey Buckingham were more than just bandmates.

What Really Happened Between Stevie Nicks and Lindsay Buckingham? A Deep  Dive Into Their Relationship

They were the heart and soul of Fleetwood Mac — a turbulent love story told through lyrics, guitar solos, and decades of backstage chaos.

But according to Stevie herself, the pain didn’t end when the romance did.

In a heartbreaking new interview, the rock goddess admits that Lindsey’s ultimate betrayal still haunts her — even now, decades later.

“I’ve carried it for years,” Stevie confessed.

“And I think I’ve finally reached the point where I just can’t pretend it didn’t destroy something in me.

Fans always knew there was tension between Stevie and Lindsey — the breakup ballads, the glares on stage, the infamous drama behind Rumours — but what they didn’t know was how deeply Lindsey’s actions after the breakup truly broke her.

According to Stevie, it wasn’t just the end of their relationship that shattered her — it was what came after: a calculated effort, she says, to sabotage her career, isolate her within the band, and undermine her at every opportunity.

“He couldn’t handle that I didn’t come crawling back,” Stevie says.

“So he tried to erase me.

At 77, Stevie Nicks Breaks Down Over Lindsey Buckingham’s Betrayal

In the interview, Stevie opens up about what she calls “years of psychological warfare,” painting a picture of Lindsey as both emotionally volatile and dangerously controlling.

“He would purposely change guitar parts on stage to throw me off,” she claims.

“Or he’d whisper something cruel before I had to go out and perform, just to get in my head.

And the worst part? No one stopped him.

Everyone was afraid of losing the band.

But it didn’t stop there.

Stevie reveals that when she began exploring solo projects in the early ’80s, Lindsey turned on her completely — accusing her of betrayal and trying to block her from bringing her own songs into Fleetwood Mac.

“He said, ‘You’ll be nothing without me.

’ I think he truly believed that.

Despite those toxic years, Stevie kept performing beside him — smiling, singing, dancing in flowing shawls while nursing invisible wounds.

She stayed, she says, for the music, for the fans, and for Christine McVie, her closest ally in the band.

“Christine kept me sane,” Stevie says.

“Without her, I don’t think I would’ve survived it.

The breaking point finally came in 2018, when Fleetwood Mac announced they had fired Lindsey — a decision Stevie supported, but didn’t orchestrate.

“That was the moment people finally saw who he really was,” she says.

“It wasn’t just me he was cruel to.

He pushed everyone too far.

Still, Stevie admits that watching Lindsey’s downfall didn’t bring her peace.

“I wanted him to change.

To apologize.

But he never did.

The emotions pour out as Stevie describes their final phone call.

“He told me he never meant to hurt me.

But by then, it was too late.

I told him, ‘You did.

And I don’t know if I’ll ever fully forgive you.

Now, at 77, Stevie says the pain still lingers — not because she’s bitter, but because she loved him so much.

“Lindsey was my first love, my artistic soulmate.

Losing that… it was like losing a part of myself.

She pauses, and then adds: “People always ask why I’m still single.

It’s because that kind of betrayal stays with you.

I never let anyone get that close again.

Her words have reignited the debate around one of rock’s most infamous relationships — and reminded fans that behind the glitter, behind the fame, there was a very real woman who endured emotional warfare while building one of the most legendary careers in music history.
