The reunion would include all of the girl group’s members except for Camila Cabello, who left 5H at the end of 2016.

Forming through the TV singing competition The X Factor back in 2012, Fifth Harmony’s original lineup consisted of Cabello, Normani, Ally Brooke, Dinah Jane and Lauren Jauregui. The quintet would go on to become one of the best-selling girl groups of the 2010s, with their albums Reflection and 7/27 both going platinum, according to the RIAA. They nabbed their biggest hit with “Work From Home,” featuring Ty Dolla $ign — which has 1.5 billion Spotify streams as of this story’s publication — while “Worth It,” featuring Kid Ink, went triple-platinum.

Fans were shocked in 2016 when Fifth Harmony announced that Cabello was leaving the group, confirming they’d continue as a foursome instead. (As part of the split, Cabello relinquished her rights to the Fifth Harmony name.) They re-signed with Epic Records after the departure and released the eponymous Fifth Harmony in 2017. By 2018, the group announced an indefinite hiatus so the members could focus on solo careers. Fifth Harmony is no longer on Epic’s roster.

As solo artists, Cabello has enjoyed the most successful career with massive global hits like “Havana,” featuring Young Thug, and “Señorita” with Shawn Mendes. Brooke, Jane, Jauregui and Normani have all released various singles and EPs as well, with Normani nabbing hits such as “Motivation” and “Love Lies” with Khalid.

As Normani dropped her debut album Dopamine last year, 5H fans had speculated a reunion as all four of her former groupmates had publicly shown their support for the new record, though Rolling Stone poured cold water on those rumors at the time.

The new Fifth Harmony has big plans for 2026, which would mark the 10-year anniversary of 7/27 and “Work From Home.” Per insiders, the group is working on a documentary to chronicle their return to the stage, which would capture footage on a yet-to-be-announced tour. It’s unclear who is managing the group, but Will Bracey, who is married to Fifth Harmony member Ally Brooke — and serves as chief operating officer of the Justin Bieber family office — is said to be leading the charge.

Bracey declined to comment. THR was unable to reach representatives for Normani, Jane and Jauregui for comment.

News of a Fifth Harmony reunion garnered mixed reviews from fans, with Harmonizers taking to social media to tweet the following:
