iMessage background not blurring on long press in iOS 26

Am I the only one having issues where my imessage background doesn't automatically blur when I long press a single message? It is literally annoying me , I feel as though I ran into this option since I updated to IOS 26 .

For example I want my messages to do as the photo I attached but it is not ?
