That's not surprising. Portrait mode requires additional depth information, which can easily be discarded or ignored later but not easily conjured up later if not originally recorded.
That said, there is an optional "Portraits in Photo Mode" setting in Settings > Camera > PHOTO CAPTURE that says it will "capture depth information if a person, dog, or cat is prominent in the frame in Photo mode, so you can apply Portrait effects later." Check to see if you have that option enabled and if your pictures have those subjects.
