Issue removing voices from my device

I had some Siri voices installed for a long time, but I'm needing some extra space so I removed them yesterday, only to discover that they were back on my phone. I tried removing them again but they came back. What should I do?

Only way I've found to delete the siri voices, at least for use with VoiceOver is to change your phone's language, delete the Siri voices, restart your phone and change the language back to your primary one.

Does it work for more than one language? I have like 5 or 6 Siri voices. I'll try doing this.

It seems it worked. I wonder why do you have to do all that for removing voices.

It seems some of the voices came back and some not after changing language, deleting all of the Siri ones, restarting the device and changing the language back to my primary. Pretty annoying thingy since my phone has only 32gb of space.
edit: all voices came back. I'll try contacting apple support about it and if necessary make a reset of all settings.
