I started the phone update around 2 hours ago and it's still loading

Hi, I have just selected to update my phone to the new IOS 13.1. I started this around 2 hours ago. It is still loading? Its not turning off or on and hasn't updated as of yet. I'm confused as prior to this it was connected to the internet and charging. Any insight on how I can stop this?
