In 1979, Mick Fleetwood met the love of his life. Years later, Stevie Nicks called it her worst nightmare
During the recording of Fleetwood Mac’s *Tusk*, Mick Fleetwood began an affair with Stevie Nicks, despite her recent break-up with Lindsey Buckingham. The relationship ended after a few months, and Fleetwood’s subsequent relationship with Nicks’s close friend Sara left Nicks feeling devastated, adding strain to an already tense band.
Nicks recalled that Sara moved in with Fleetwood without either of them telling her; she learnt the news from Sara’s husband. The article says Fleetwood was ready to settle down and later describes Nicks and Fleetwood as having a lasting, close bond. It also links the end of their affair to Nicks’s later solo work and relationship with Joe Walsh.
