They needed her for the big tour where the contracts were signed that was coming up. When she got crankier and crankier that not only the band "played on" but dare tour without her was too much. I am sure Mick would have loved to have joined Chris and Lindsey on tour but he did not want to poke Mama bear. Stevie melted down when Lindsey wrote and sung World Turning with Chris. Stevie was always used to getting her way and the band working around her schedule. When they didn't she did the ultimate betrayal.......it's him or me.

And I guess she used "abuse" (emotional, verbal, or violent) by Lindsey as a threat to Mick. In other words, "I'll go public with it Mick" and then Mick would've been asked why didn't you do anything about it as the band leader all those years ago.
