While Ellie hasn’t looked short of friends during her Miami getaway, the singer's ex-boyfriend Dougie Poynter has revealed that he spent an entire day hanging out with his former flame at Coachella festival earlier this month.

Speaking to The Sun about his relationship with Ellie following their February split, Dougie explained: 'We love each other very much, we're still best of friends,' he explained.

'We hung out at Coachella, like all day, with her friends and my friends. It's really, really cool.'

Talking about the reason behind the break-up, Dougie, who is pursuing acting roles in Los Angeles, echoed Ellie's recent comments, explaining that their busy careers and long distance simple got in the way.

'It's just both being all over the place. Like I said, we still get on really well,' he said. 'She's one of the most amazing people I've ever met. But just right now, it's hard. I'm single now.'

In March Ellie told The Sun that the musicians' hectic schedules meant they decided to call it a day in February, with Ellie revealing she's planning to take some time away from the spotlight to focus on herself.

People think I'm invincible but these past few weeks have been tough,' she admitted. 'Everyone knows that breaking up with someone is a really terrible thing. It's hard, complicated and it's never going to be easy.'

Ellie and Dougie had been dating on and off for two years, and previously split in December before rekindling their romance at the beginning of the year.

They originally kept their relationship under wraps for some time before the bassist confirmed the rumours to Fearne Cotton during a fly-on-the-wall documentary with McBusted in May 2014.
