Apple Watch response is 68 years old

When I ask my Apple Watch (watch OS 9.2) “hey siri how old is my mom”, dad, father-in-law, etc the response is always 68 years old.

their birthdays are:

- 1 Jan 1940, 1 Feb 1950 and 1 Mar 1900

it is pulling their birthdates out of my contacts, but responds with 68 years old for anyone that is over 68 years old.

when I ask my iPhone (iOS 16.2) it tells me their correct age.

Anyone able to replicate or having the same problem or know of a fix?

thx

Robert

I get this exact same problem too. iPhone 13 Pro Max on IOS 16.2 is fine when I ask, but Apple Watch 5 on OS 9.2 always comes back with "68 years old" for anyone in my contacts over that age.

I've tried deleting those contacts from my phone and recreating them, but the same issue happens. I've restarted my phone and watch, but nothing changes, so this seems to be a bug with Watch OS.

Please fix this Apple.

Trevor.
