MacBook Pro Mail Flags

How to enable the flag color to show when flagging a message? Prior to the recent update if I selected any color to flag a message that color would appear. Currently, when I choose a color the only color shown next to the message is white. Why is this happening?

Mail messages already flagged with color, are now showing the color white after being opened.



I tried to make the point above, if the mail is selected all you get to see is a white flag until you move off that email.
