The McFly guitarist was left heartbroken last year after breaking up with long-term girlfriend Frankie Sandford from The Saturdays.
And according to the Sunday Mirror, a "crushed" Dougie has spent the past four weeks at The Priory.
A source close to the McFly man told the paper: "It got to the point where he was struggling to get through a day so he decided to seek help at the Priory clinic.
"He's been in there working hard on getting his head straight.
Following the news that Frankie had moved on to footballer Wayne Bridge, a heartbroken Dougie told The Mirror: "I don't think I'm over it yet. Something like that could take years. It's just time."
We hope a spell in rehab does Dougie the world of good - he is expected to rejoin the band for their Above The Noise tour later this month.
