Safari Reader (missing layout options)

Hello,

I'm currently having issues with my Reader functionality on Safari after I updated to the latest macOS 12.0.1 (Monterey).

In the past, when I "click-hold" on the reader Icon (see below) in reader mode, it would give me the option to change the font, change the reader background color and adjust the font size.

However this option is no longer available, and I tried to change the reader setting, it simply just toggle between the reader mode and normal mode.

How can I fix this issue?

Thank you in advance
