News app not refreshing on Apple Watch

After not using my watch for a month or two, I have noticed that the Apple News app on my Apple Watch is not updating/refreshing. Every time I go in to the app, it shows the same five top stories, which are dated. I’ve tried turning on/off both my iPhone and watch and both are updated to the latest software. Any suggestions?

Apple Watch Series 5, watchOS 6

Hello,

Hope I can help. Try updating the Apple Watch again. If the install won't download or start, open the Watch app on your iPhone, tap the My Watch tab, and go to General > Usage > Software Update. Then, delete the update file and try to download and install the update again. If you more questions use this link https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.digitaltrends.com/wearables/apple-watch-problems/%3famp
