My iCloud has 35gb for messages, and I’m trying to reduce that but unsuccessfully.

If I delete message attachments on my iPhone, they remain on my iPad and iMac. I can delete them from each device and they seemingly come back later. And, most bizarrely, there are some photos in the same chat that differ on each device.

What’s the best way to actually clear the attachments from the chat taking up all that space?
