If you've failed to back up your WhatsApp data in the past year, this will be entirely wiped from the current Google Drive it's being stored on.
This doesn't mean that it'll be gone from your phone, but if you delete the app or try to use a different device, your messages and photos probably won't be there.
The Sun reports that WhatsApp sent out an email to users explaining the change.
They said:
Better get backing up, lads.“Due to a new agreement between WhatsApp and Google, WhatsApp backups will no longer count against Google Drive storage quota.
“However, any WhatsApp backups that have not been updated in more than a year will automatically be removed from storage.”
