Apple TV HD Won’t connect to Apple Watch

The first time it worked after setting up but now when I open Apple Fit, the screen shows my watch but when I select connect, I get a message, “connection cancelled.” I have even tried resetting (several times) to factory default and it won’t reset.

I cannot connect my watch to my Apple TV for Fitness . My watch, iphone, and TV are all updated. I have tried unpairing and repairing my watch, restarting the ATV, force closing the fitness app. Nothing works. Very frustrating. I cannot connect my watch to my Apple TV for Fitness . My watch, iphone, and TV are all updated. I have tried unpairing and repairing my watch, restarting the ATV, force closing the fitness app and updating my Airplay/Homekit settings. Nothing works. Very frustrating. It works fine with another watch in my household. It worked one time a few days ago and now I cannot get it connected.
