Stevie Nicks Confirms She Was Once Pregnant With Don Henley's Baby
SPIN.com ^ | 9/26/14 | Staff

Posted on 09/27/2014 4:53:28 PM PDT by SilvieWaldorfMD

The '70s nearly had their own Blue Ivy Carter, Stevie Nicks has confirmed. The Fleetwood Mac singer/songwriter recently talked with Billboard about her upcoming 24 Karat Gold LP, and was asked about a comment made by her ex-paramour (and fellow '70s megastar) Don Henley of the Eagles. Henley had said that Nicks had gotten pregnant with his baby, and that Sara (later the name of a Mac top-ten hit) was the name she had given the unborn child. Nicks corroborated the important part of that story:

Had I married Don and had that baby, and had she been a girl, I would have named her Sara. But there was another woman in my life named Sara, who shortly after that became Mick's wife, Sara Fleetwood.

The idea of Nicks and Henley — maybe the two most famous members of the two most famous American rock bands of the late '70s — having a child is kind of a crazy one. It would've been a tumultuous upbringing to say the least, but just imagine the smooth, California-inflected and overwhelmingly bitter songwriting DNA that kid would've had. John Mayer would kneel in worship, certainly.

Well, of course, but that's when they had Bob Welch right?

Fleetwood Mac singer Stevie Nicks admitted having four abortions during her life, saying, “To give up four babies is to give up a lot that would be here now. So that bothers me, a lot, and really breaks my heart. But they’re gone, so . . . ”

Women were put on this earth to make babies and give pleasure to men. Sound neanderthal? She got it half right I guess. Better for her to give them up for adoption after giving birth. That way she could feel guilty the rest of her life instead of when it’s convenient. She could have kept her millions and been in better physical health. Child birth will do that.

Why do I have to read stupid crap like your reply? She did not have an ounce of regret and yes a decent woman regrets killing her baby, this one killed 4 and says SHE gave up a lot.

I said the truth. She didn’t learn or care after 4 abortions. Maybe she’s just a privileged stupid jerk and I have to keep quiet about it so that other women will voice their regrets?

4 not 1. Not even 2. 4. What regret? Too damn bad what I said don’t shift her crap onto me.

Boo hoo poor Stevie Niks. /s

Fame,she was using abortion as birth control.Bet she had more than that.I once told off a woman who had 6 abortions and she said I was #1 on her list to apologize to and brought in the 7th non-aborted child.Only saw her once but she is my Grandchild.Not all the aborted were my grandchildren but the last one was -late term.Tell her off.

Notice the phrase used is “admitted to having four abortions”. Nowhere did it say only four. I guess her career was worth more. If that is the case, just have a hysterectomy and be done with it. Stop creating just for the sadistic satisfaction of giving another child’thumbs down’ on living their lives outside the womb.

i remember reading here on Freep a few years ago she either went to Walter Reed or the vet hospital in Germany to visit our wounded vets, gave them all MP3’s and mentioned how, as the child of an Air Force officer, she loved all the wounded vets...it is sad that she’s had all those abortions...

Thank you for the reminder. :) Being a child of the 60s myself, and making one of the mistakes Stevie did, I can say with her extreme talent, success, and beauty, this does not surprise me there were four. (A previous friend of mine stopped counting at seven.) Stevie was/is also a bit too "cosmic" for her own good, imo, and now she is paying the ultimate price. So I agree with you................sad.

Wouldn't be the first time.;-)

My point is "who cares about a baby of Stevie Nicks when the world is burning?"

You have a point, but MANY women have regretfully had abortions, and they are well aware of the never-ending sting. And Stevie sang the most tragic of romantic songs to boot (couldn't listen to some of them without tissue), and women could (and still can) identify with that and her pain.

I wonder if that is the reason she is childless. Unable to have children due to all the abortions she had.
