Delete a message or conversation
When you delete a message or conversation, you can't get it back. So make sure that you save important information from your messages.
Retrieving isn't as easy as you think it is...
Restoring from iTunes backup is an option but you need to restore the entire iPhone (only messages restoration option does not exist) including all apps, Photos, Videos, Voice Memos, Notes on your iPhone etc...
The question is when did you backup on iTunes and when did you delete it...Read on...
Let us assume...
Date1: Backup date
Date2: Message Deletion Date
Date3: Current Date / Restoration Date
Given that --> Date1 < Date2 < Date3

Unless you have a backup of the texts before they were deleted, you can't.
You may be able to ask the original recipients of the text to send you a copy, though.
If you tap to delete a text and then you tap again a second time to confirm that you want to delete a text, Apple will take you at your word and delete the text from the iPhone.
What if I go to a previous back up? & how would I do that, please. Thank you
