I received an email stating that my photo stream will shut down on July 26. Will my pictures that are backed up on iCloud still be there and how will I be able to access them?

how will I be able to access my pictures on my iPhone after July 26? I received an email stating that my photo stream will be discontinued on that time. However, I pay monthly for iCloud back up.

iPhone 14 Plus
