Apple Watch Complication (2020.5.2) doesnt trigger actions unless Phone App is currently Open

As the title implies. since the Companion update, I can no longer trigger actions from my Apple Watch unless I manually open the app on my phone and have it running on screen, if i go back to my home screen or shut the screen off, the actions stop working again. I can click an action 100 times and itll do nothing, but the moment i open the app on the phone, it immediately works and triggers as expected.

Anyone else experiencing this?
