The badge icon indicates a general error. The simplest method of resolving errors of this type is often simply a case of logging-out from the service, restarting your iPad - then login again to the service.
For Messages, you’ll need to log-out from iCloud - but before doing so, to preserve your Messages, verify that Messages are enabled in your iCloud Settings prior to logging out of iCloud.
Settings > [Your Name] > iCloud > Messages - verify set to ON
To log-out from iCloud:
Settings > [Your Name] > Sign Out
Restart your iPad:

After restart, login again to iCloud.
I hope you find this to be helpful in resolving your issue.
