What was the information?

 

Personally, I'd cut them both off. Others might be more forgiving depending on the information that was disclosed, the circumstances of the disclosure and the relationship between your friend and this guy.

 

At the extreme end: as to how to respond, "I don't want to talk about it." As to how to confront, "I feel betrayed by both of you. What you did was unforgiveable. We can't be friends anymore. Please do not try to contact me. I don't want to discuss this." Then I'd block and go NC on both of them.

what do i do say?

 

At this juncture, I'd say nothing and move on. Cutting contact is an answer.

 

In the future, one suggestion is to share sensitive personal information, if shared at all, with only one friend you trust and to include that the information is 'confidential' or 'between us only'. This focuses the information on one portal as well as communicates your boundary regarding sharing of said information.
