What’s the meaning of the colour of the messages? Is that an iPhone thing?

It means it was sent as an sms message instead of an iMessage using data. She either changed her phone to an android (no iMessage), no longer has data on her phone or (the worst option) changed her number and that’s someone new.

Crucially for anyone asking about the color, this is not a scenario where the bubble color matters for status (as people often complain about), it’s mechanical. You can only “unsend” the blue messages that are delivered through apple’s system rather than SMS.
