Passcode options greyed out on Apple Watch SE

I am trying to set up my Apple Wallet on my Apple Watch but it says it requires a passcode. I believe I did create a passcode when I was setting up my watch but now when I open settings all the options to turn the passcode on or change it are greyed out. How can I solve that?

Apple Watch SE, watchOS 10

You may have Screen Time Restrictions set to ON on your iPhone that is paired with your Apple Watch.

Perform the following action on your iPhone:

Open Settings ➔ Screen Time ➔ Content & Privacy Restrictions ➔ Passcode Changes : Set this to ALLOW
