How to get images that are in iCloud with PHPickerViewController?

I have been searching high and low for anyone that has encountered the same issue,

My problem is when an image is not actually on the device but rather in iCloud, my app fails to retrieve the image. How would i go about remedying this?

My code for PHPicker implementation is as follows, any help would be greatly appreciated.

Code Block 
extension PageViewController: PHPickerViewControllerDelegate {
   
  func presentPicker() {
    ArtModel.holdingBay.removeAll()
    var configuration = PHPickerConfiguration()
    configuration.filter = .images
    configuration.selectionLimit = 5
    let picker = PHPickerViewController(configuration: configuration)
    picker.delegate = self
    present(picker, animated: true)
  }
   
  func picker(_ picker: PHPickerViewController, didFinishPicking results: [PHPickerResult]) {
    if results.count > 0 {
      for result in results {
        result.itemProvider.loadObject(ofClass: UIImage.self, completionHandler: { (object, error) in
          if let image = object as? UIImage {
            DispatchQueue.main.async {
              ArtModel.holdingBay.append(image)
            }
          }
        })
      }
    }
    picker.dismiss(animated: true, completion: self.holdingBayCheck)
  }
   
  func holdingBayCheck() {
    if ArtModel.holdingBay.count > 0 {
      performSegue(withIdentifier: K.goToCrop, sender: self)
    }
  }
   
}
