Mere days after performing with Fifth Harmony at the Power 96.1 Jingle Ball at Philips Arena , Camila Cabello has departed the group.

At the stroke of midnight, the remaining members of the "Work From Home" group posted a message on social media that they were informed via Cabello's representatives that she has decided to leave Fifth Harmony.

Ally Brooke, Normani Kordei, Dinah Jane and Lauren Jauregui vowed to "continue with Fifth Harmony as well as our solo endeavors."

In addition to her work with the group, which was formed on "The X-Factor" in 2012, Cabello is currently on the charts with her Machine Gun Kelly collaboration, "Bad Things," which the pair also performed at Jingle Ball.
