Restrictions enabled but not really

After the recent 14.5.1 update I noticed I couldn’t find Apple News even though I had the widget available. When I would go to open an article I was directed to safari. That then got me thinking what happened to Apple News? So I tried going to the apple store and searching for it and found it. When I tried to open it I got a message pretty much saying I had restrictions enabled. So I double-checked my screen time settings and under content restrictions I confirmed they were off. I then searched through the community and found the answer but couldn’t mark it as helpful so thought I’d make this post with the fix for anyone else having this issue:

Change the region, which was set to US, to UK, waited for the “Changing the Region” prompt to finish, and then changed back to US.
