Apple Watch won’t connect to Apple TV for fitness

Recently my Apple Watch series 6 has stopped connecting to my Apple TV when trying to connect to use fitness+ it asks to connect confirm on the watch and nothing happens just spins on the tv but never connects.


I’ve restarted both devices, signed out of iCloud on Apple TV, and both are on latest software.

Apple Watch Series 6, watchOS 8
