This assumes your iPhone is running 13.7 (current) iOS.

If not, update to that, and try again.

Then back up locally, using a Mac or Windows system.

This so that you have a backup.

Always have a backup.

Then log into iCloud.com directly, or use the following sequence, and try to delete the problem backup.
