Cannot update to IOS 15.5 from iPhone 8 plus

I have an iPhone 8+ with storage available showing that I need to update to 15.5. Ive tried several times to update but once the system begins the update an alert comes up saying there’s an error with 15.5, I can RETRY or REMIND ME LATER. Those are the only decisions I can make. I’ve tried both options repeatedly. Can you assist so I can program a new Apple Watch?

Do you have a VPN installed on your device? That can sometimes prevent updates.
