If your phone number has changed, you’ll need to update your phone number in iPad settings:

Settings > [Your Name / AppleID] > Name, Phone Numbers, Email > [Contactable At] - tap Edit and make changes as required


Next, update your Messages settings:

Settings > Messages > Send & Receive - enable and disable as required
