WhatsApp messages after Factory reset.

Help. I'm in a state. My husband went missing and in a state of panic in 'find my phone' I erased his phone instead of setting up an alert.
He is now been found and luckily recovery in hospital.
Until he is awake I can not sort his phone but wondered if he will still get his emails, txt messages and WhatsApp messages while the phone has been factory reset so to speak. For example, when he logs back in to WhatsApp will all messages appear or just the ones from before I hit the erase button?
Hope that makes sense.

Thank you. Yes he does back up to icloud and all his contacts calendar and email are there. Thankfully.
So the WhatsApp messages sent since his last back up won't get through? Hopefully people will see that and send txt messages instead. Great advice thanks
