How do I stop my iPhone's from sending the same message twice?

I have two Apple iPhones with two different numbersand one account. When I send a text message from one phone, the recipient gets the duplicate text message from my other phone. This just started. How do I get it to stop? I’ve had two phones on the same account for a for a long time and this never happened before.

Messages sent to a specific contact are being delivered to a different phone number When I text one contact the number reverts to another contact. I have deleted both from my iPhone 16 pro max and it still happens even with just the phone number. I have also deleted all messages from these specific numbers. It is only happening with these numbers. Both contacts are in the same household and use family sharing. I have been troubleshooting with Apple for about a week but they stopped attempting to set up troubleshooting. I checked both the other phones myself and can’t find any discrepancies that would explain why when you message one number it shows the other number and visa versa. Also even though one number shows the other number, the text still goes to the intended sender. [Re-Titled by Moderator]

Texting recipient problems Why is my phone changing who receives certain texts, I am sending a text to one person, but that text changes to being sent to a completely different person after the text is sent? And the originally intended recipient isn’t receiving any texts from me
