Dear Client,
Who told about your marriage to your friend and who issued phone numbers and other information of the prospective marriage party. It is a mistake committed by you by giving information. Keep it secret till marriage is performed. Don`t reveal any thing before that was happens. If any body believed about gossips no body saves them. On whom you want to take action. You cannot stop anybody from giving information to other person. You must act in a strategic way or in planned way.

Hi
You can file a Criminal case of defamation against your Ex under Section 499 and Section 500 in The Indian Penal Code
In the said defamation case, you can also add charges under Section 509 of IPC as your Ex has disclosed your relationship which is actually a crime under section 509 under IPC as well.
