Stevie Nicks: Relationship With Joe Walsh Nearly Killed Me

Stevie Nicks and Joe Walsh were so hooked on drugs during their romance, they feared they'd die if they didn't split.

The Fleetwood Mac singer dated Eagles star Walsh during the 1980s and describes him as "the great, great love of my life".

But they both began taking cocaine in vast quantities and Nicks blames the drug for ruining their relationship.

She tells People magazine, "There was nothing more important than Joe Walsh - not my music, not my songs, not anything.

"We had to break up or we thought we'd die. It took me years to get over it. It's very sad but at least we survived."
