Dougie Poynter has made his catwalk debut after signing to Storm Models.

The McFly star proved his model credentials as he walked for the first time in the Joshua Kane with LAB SERIES show as part of London Collections Men on Friday.

While he certainly looked the part, the 28-year-old found the whole experience rather tiring, saying that he needed to go home and “have a nap” after the show.

Although Ellie Goulding wasn’t in attendance, it seems that the pair are well and truly back on after a brief split last year.

The pop star, whose song Love Me Like You Do was nominated for a Golden Globe at the weekend, showed her support by posting a photo of Poynter on the catwalk.

She captioned the snap: “Congratulations on your first walk @idougahole this is incredible. @joshuakanebespoke #nextbigthing.”

Poynter was joined on the catwalk by Taboo of The Black Eyed Peas and Machine Gun Kelly.

Stars including Alex Zane and Made in Cheslea’s Ollie Locke and Oliver Proudlock joined tech influencers Philip Bock of Sponsta and Alex Semenzato of Fash Tech on the front row.
