Lauren Jauregui has plenty of love for her Fifth Harmony bandmates.

The singer spoke exclusively to PEOPLE about the status of the musical group composed of herself, Ally Brooke, Normani and Dinah Jane — along with Camila Cabello until she left the band in 2016 — at the Femme It Forward Give Her FlowHers Awards Gala at the Beverly Hilton in Los Angeles on Friday, Nov. 8.

When asked if she still keeps in touch with the current members of Fifth Harmony, Jauregui, 29, says: "Yeah, I mean, I definitely still have a lot of love for the girls."

"The four of us talk here and there. Yeah, Dinah actually just had a show yesterday. I wasn't able to make it. I landed too late last night, but she and Ally were out there last night," she continues. "So yeah, we're definitely still in contact."

"Maybe in the future at some point, but not right now," Jauregui says. "I'm definitely focused on myself currently."

Fifth Harmony was formed with the help of Simon Cowell after the members first met in 2012 on the second season of the American version of The X Factor. The group wound up placing third and went on to release the singles "Worth It" in 2015 and "Work From Home" in 2016, along with the studio albums Fifth Harmony, Reflection and 7/27.

In December 2016, the band announced that Cabello, 27, was leaving to focus on a solo career and they would continue to perform as a quartet instead, according to a statement shared on X (formerly Twitter) at the time.

The group ultimately went on hiatus in March 2018, with the remaining members pursuing their own "solo endeavors." They said in a statement at the time: “We are all very excited and grateful to be able to take this time to learn and grow creatively and really find our footing as individuals."

"In doing this, we are allowing ourselves to gain new experiences, strengths and perspectives that we can bring back to our Fifth Harmony family," they added.

The band has not released any music since 2017.

The Femme It Forward Give Her FlowHers Awards Gala was hosted by SaweetieSnoop Dogg and his wife Shante Broadus were surprise recipients of the Black Love Award, while Andra Day presented Chloe x Halle with the My Sister’s Keeper Award.
