Try looking for Dual Messenger under advanced features. If you see a copy of the Messages app, then that's probably why you have 2.

If that the case to fix it you simply need to tap on the vertical 3 dot menu button and press Delete all my data to get rid of the clone. Or just toggle it off

Probably not it, since Dual Messenger clone app icons are slightly different from the original and yours share the exact same icon

This is a confirmed bug by the latest update of Google messages affecting both Samsung and Pixel phones. Guess we'll just have to wait for the next update.
