Dougie Poynter shrugged off news about his ex-girlfriend Ellie Goulding ‘s wedding this weekend to focus on promoting his new book instead.
The McFly star, 31, dated singer Ellie, 32, for two years. They split in 2016 shortly before she went on to meet her now-husband Caspar Jopling.
Ellie and Caspar tied the knot in York on Saturday, and Dougie made it clear he was not paying attention to the star-studded affair.
He appeared to totally ignore his former lover’s big day to focus on promoting his new eco-friendly book, Plastic Sucks.
On the day of the wedding, all fans saw on his Twitter account was a message promoting the project and his upcoming book tour.
He wrote: “I’m going on tour for #PlasticSucks starting next weekend!! Book tickets here if you haven’t already.”

After splitting from Dougie, Ellie revealed she just needed to be on her own.
She told The Sun: “I’m not in a relationship any more and that’s been hard.
“Having a break will be a good thing for me and my head.
“Dougie is one of the most special people in the world and I’m so happy for him.
“He’s doing well in LA and he’s still one of my best friends. I know he feels the same.

“But I think for me and anybody else going through the same thing, it’s really important to get to know yourself, be happy with your own company and like yourself.
“The only way I can do that is by spending time with myself.”
Ellie and Caspar tied the knot at York Minster yesterday in front of family and friends, as well as royalty and famous faces from the entertainment industry.
Among the guests at the cathedral were Katy Perry and Orlando Bloom, James Blunt and his wife Sofie Wellesley, and Sienna Miller and her boyfriend Lucas Zwirner.
Sarah Ferguson was also there with her daughters Princess Eugenie and Princess Beatrice.
