Trouble destroying an SDL2 texture from another class

In my main class (game loop) I have created a couple of object textures:

//main game class
    SDL_Texture* objectTexture;
    SDL_Texture* objectTexture2;

If I do this in the main class (game loop) the texture doesn’t destroy itself, it leaves part of the animated SDL_Rect on the screen. This is the result of when the user clicks pick up on the menu.

 gameObject = mob.PickUp(scene,x, y,gd, gy,mInteraction,spriteTexture,objectTexture,objectTexture2,renderer,spriteDown1, "");

        if (gameObject != "") {

            pob.DestroyObjects(gameObject, objectTexture, objectTexture2, renderer);

        }

But if I do this in the main class, it works?

gameObject = mob.PickUp(scene,x, y,gd, gy,mInteraction,spriteTexture,objectTexture,objectTexture2,renderer,spriteDown1, "");

  if (gameObject == "Object 1!"){


            SDL_DestroyTexture(objectTexture);
            objectTexture = SDL_CreateTextureFromSurface(renderer, NULL);
       }


       if (gameObject == "Object 2!"){


          SDL_DestroyTexture(objectTexture2);
          objectTexture2 = SDL_CreateTextureFromSurface(renderer, NULL);
       }

pob.DestroyObjects does the same thing as above code, just in a different class. I have passed the pointers to the other class. I would be tearing my hair out but I have shaved my head during the lockdown.
