My messages came up with a iMessage thing to sign in. Never had to do that and now I can’t get onto my messages on my iPad. What happened?

I just tried to use my message on my iPad and it’s asking me to sign in for iMessage. Never had this or asked me to do this. Why is this happening and it won’t let me use it. Keeps saying it’s signing in and won’t stop. Have to close screen, I go back to it and it just says signing in... HELP


iPad Pro 10.5-inch, Wi-Fi
