Two part text message in iMessage.

Okay, I did some experimenting before I decided to post this thread.
I have been messaging my Cousin off and on today, she has the iPhone 5.
When I sent her a link to a web page from Google.
She would get the message as a complete separate text.
But normal back and forth conversations go through the original message.
If I send her a link from a web page through Safari, it is doing the same thing.
It's like web page links are getting sent as a separate message.
She says it is not occurring on her end which is very odd.
And this only just started to happen recently. I got it a couple of days ago, and shrugged it off as a bug. But this is twice now, so I am curious if this is happening with anybody else? Thanks

I am seeing something similar. I used to be able to send photos with text in the same message. It would appear as the text bubble containing the photo and the text would display under the photo in the same text bubble.

Since iOS 8 (betas as well as general release), the photo is represented in a separate text bubble. The associated text is in a subsequent text bubble.

I guess that’s just how it works now.

Thanks Hank, my photos are going through the same way.
To add another twist to this. If I go into the message on my Mac.
It is all one complete conversation, so maybe it's an iOS issue only.
