If you just updated to iOS 14.7, according to If your iPhone doesn’t unlock your Apple Watch after updating to iOS 14.7 - Apple Support:

"When you have Unlock with iPhone turned on, unlocking your iPhone unlocks your Apple Watch as long as you're wearing it. An issue in iOS 14.7 affects the ability of iPhone models with Touch ID to unlock Apple Watch.

This issue will be addressed in an upcoming software update."
