Fifth Harmony announces hiatus

Fifth Harmony is taking an indefinite hiatus to focus on solo endeavors.

The group members, Ally Brooke, Dinah Jane, Normani Kordei, and Lauren Jauregui announced the news on social media on Monday.

“Reflecting on the past six years since we started on X-Factor, we’ve realized just how far we’ve come and we appreciate everything so much, more now than ever,” the group tweeted.

Their note continued: “After six years going hard, non-stop, we also realized that in order to stay authentic to ourselves and to you, we do need to take some time for now to go on a hiatus from Fifth Harmony in order to pursue solo endeavors.”

The four girls thanked their fans at the end of their note by saying: “To our Harmonizers, thank you for everything we have been able to build as Fifty Harmony. With your love and encouragement we will continue to build on ourselves, support one another in everything we do, and keep making you proud, each other proud and ourselves proud.”
