Hiding iCloud Photos from Select Albums

I want to hide certain photos from the main album (Recents & Library), but I still want to see them in a different album. TBH, I have over 52,000 photos and videos which are mostly with my ex of 21 years. I want to send those photos to the HIDDEN album but I still want to see them in the newly created album titled 💔 POS 💔. Right now, when I hide photos from the main albums, the photos from the other albums also are hidden. I hope this is descriptive enough.

iPhone 15 Pro Max, iOS 17

What you want to do used to be possible in the earlier versions of Photos, but in the most recent versions Apple has changed how hiding is working. When we now hide a photo it is hidden everywhere, not just from the library. Only on a Mac can we still make hidden photos visible in albums. There we can create smart albums with a rule „photo is hidden“ and se the hidden photo in this album.
