Mick Fleetwood wants to see "a healing" between former Fleetwood Mac bandmates Stevie Nicks and Lindsey Buckingham. The former couple have had a turbulent relationship over the decades which intensified when Buckingham was fired from the 'Don't Stop' band in 2018 over a touring disagreement but Mick is hopeful that their differences can be resolved. In an interview with MOJO, the 77-year-old musician said: "It's no secret, it's not tittle-tattle that there is a brick wall there emotionally.
"Stevie's able to speak clearly about how she feels and doesn't feel, as does Lindsey. But I'll say, personally, I would love to see a healing between them – and that doesn't have to take the shape of a tour, necessarily." Mick also discussed the difficulties he has gone through in recent years – including the death of bandmate Christine McVie in 2022 and the fires that destroyed his restaurant in his adopted home of Maui, Hawaii last summer.
He said: "It's been a strange time for me. Losing sweet Christine was catastrophic. And then, in my world, sort of losing the band too.
And I split with my partner as well. I just found myself sort of licking my wounds." Regarding the fires, Mick continued: "It was a hardcore hit for everyone on this lovely little island.
"I mean, we're just lucky to be here – but there was a lot of terrible loss, lots of people without homes, people who were badly affected. "(The residents of Lahania) are making progress. And people are coming back to the islan.
