Since updating to iOS 16.1.1, my Lock Screen and Home Screen are black. I restart my phone and the photos I’ve set for each return. How do I fix this??

Wallpaper turning black Did the iOS 16.4 update the other night and now my Lock Screen n sometimes my background pictures kept turning black. Everything else is there and visible, if I restart my phone it will correct for a very short time and then they back out again. From what I’ve read this has supposedly been fix in previous updates. But I haven’t had an issue tell this update.
