McFly's Dougie Poynter on Ellie Goulding: 'We love each other very much'

Musician Dougie Poynter has opened up about his split from 'Army' singer Ellie Goulding and revealed that they're still "the best of friends" despite no longer being romantically linked

Speaking to The Sun's Bizarre HQ, he explained that there's a lot of love and respect between them, but they aren't together as a couple any more:

“We love each other very much. We are the best of friends. We hung out at Coachella, like all day, with her friends and my friends. It was really, really cool. Everything is totally fine.”

Poynter went onto add that their schedules kept clashing and they're just trying to be friends right now: “It’s just both being all over the place. Like I said, we still get on really well. She’s one of the most amazing people I’ve ever met. But just right now, it’s hard. I’m single now.”

Back in March, Goulding told Heat magazine that she might write something about their break-up in the future, but right now it's too raw: 

"Everyone knows I write about things that have happened in my life, but it's too early to say. It's very new and very different and I think people forget me breaking up with someone is no different to them breaking up with someone - it's s**t. But if I do write about him, it will probably be nice stuff."
