Christine McVie’s death has been confirmed as being from an ischemic stroke. When the Fleetwood Mac singer and keyboardist passed away in November 2022, her actual cause of death was not disclosed, with a statement from her family detailing only that she had died peacefully in hospital following a short illness.
An ischemic stroke is caused, according to Healthline, “by a blockage in an artery that supplies blood to the brain”, occurring “when an artery that
supplies blood to the brain is blocked by a blood clot or fatty build-up.”
