McFly’s Dougie Poynter is in rehab

Band mate Tom Fletcher has confirmed that Dougie Poynter is in rehab.

Confirming the rumours, Tom tweeted: “Obviously you’re all reading rumours about Dougie. Please don’t worry. We don’t know what the tabloids will say tomorrow but he is in rehab.”

“He’s just been having a tough time lately and needed a few weeks rest so he’s fighting fit and ready to slap that bass for you on tour.”

Danny Jones also tweeted, “Don’t worry about Doug people!! He is soooo excited about the tour!! Love you all and we will send him your love!”

Poor Dougie, who was dumped by Frankie Sandford not once, but twice, recently admitted he had no idea who her new boyfriend was.

“I have never been into football so I had no idea who he was. I know who Wayne Rooney is though.” he told the Mirror.

To be fair, we didn’t know who he was until John Terry got it on with his missus.

Dougie joked that he’s “moving on to guys”.

We wish him all the best.
