Stevie Nicks (1983)
As one of the lead vocalists of the group, Stevie Nicks chose not to have children, and she has spoken extensively on her reasoning.
" I couldn't have really done both ," Nicks shared. "Now, many women can do both. I'm not saying it can't be done," she said in 2001. "For me, I knew that if I had a baby, I would have to take care of that baby, and I wouldn't have been happy with a nanny taking care of my baby and walking into the room and having my child run across the room to another woman."
