Unable to turn private browsing off. Pls advise

From your open Safari window, touch the icon at top-right of the screen (two overlapping squares) and you will see three new buttons at top-right - “Private”, “+” and “Done”. The “Private” button is likely highlighted - just touch this button to return to the normal browsing mode.

The Private button is sticky; it remains highlighted when the Private mode is active - and is not highlighted when the normal browsing mode is selected.

I hope you find this helpful is solving your problem.
