Hi @Judith Evans 

In some cases, the issue relates to mostly iMessage and not having the correct number in place. Please can you try the following: 

 1)    Try turning off iMessage (Settings > Messages)
2)    Restart your phone (by pressing and holding the on/off button)
3)    Tap Settings > Phone > My Number and confirm that it is correct. 
4)    If it is not correct, please enter the correct number
5)    Turn iMessage back to On (Settings > Messages)
6)    Finally, go to Settings > Messages > Send & Receive and see if the correct number is displayed under “Start new conversations from:”. 

 

Once done, please monitor to see if you are still having this issue with multiple texts sending.
