Fifth Harmony have poured cold water on speculation that they were close to breaking up.

The internet was ablaze with gossip recently that the group, who formed on the US X Factor in 2012, could split.

This was partly because singer Camila Cabello recorded a cameo on Shawn Mendes' single 'I Know What You Did Last Summer'..

However, the band are due to release their second album '7/27' on May 20 and they told Entertainment Tonight the future of Fifth Harmony was never in doubt.

Dinah Jane Hansen said: "Regardless of everything that's been going on, that's always been the focus, Fifth Harmony.

"Fifth Harmony is definitely our first love...it's always been the foundation of everything."

Lauren Jauregui added: "I mean, we were just in the studio and we are coming out with an album, you know, and that's what happened with that, honestly, at the end of the day... we got a song on the radio right now."
