Tagged Person Missing from People Album

I just brought over 10k photos in to Photos app. Generally a good experience. I had one person, however, who at some point got tagged with two different variations of her name. I consolidated them (when prompted) and now she does not appear in the People album. All the photos remain tagged with her name (I have a smart album that proves she is in over 1,400 photos). Any ideas on how to fix this? thanks!

You may need to add the album for this person manually to the People album.

  • Select a photo with this person in it.
  • Click the Photo to view it enlarged.
  • Now swipe the enlarged photo up to reveal the Details section. There should be a section with "People" in the Details below the photo.

  • Click the thumbnail with the face of the person to open the hidden album for this person. At the bottom of the album should be "Add to People Album". Click this "Add to People Album".
