I am making a react native chat app and can't figure out how to limit the length of the chat bubble before wrapping it to a new line

I am making a chat app with React Native using TS and NativeWind. I am trying to make the chat bubble's wrap after a certain length but whenever I put a fixed width on the chat bubble it always colors the whole width of the bubble, even if it isn't fill out.

enter image description here

Here you can see even if I don't use the whole length of the chat bubble the bubble is filled orange. I want the bubble to only be as big as it needs to fit the user content & email but wrap the text after I certain length.

import { View, Text } from "react-native";
import { Avatar, Divider } from "react-native-paper";
import { COLORS } from "../../constants";
import { styled } from "nativewind";

const StyledDivier = styled(Divider);

type Props = {
  text: string;
  email: string;
  date: string;
  time: string;
};

function UserSent({ text, email, date, time }: Props) {
  return (
    <View className="flex flex-row items-start justify-end w-full py-4 space-x-2 ">
      <View className="flex flex-col   space-y-1 pt-1 ">
        <Text className="text-xs text-foxGray">{date}</Text>
        <Text className="text-xs text-foxGray">{time}</Text>
      </View>

      <View className="flex flex-row">
        <View className=" p-2 rounded-md bg-foxOrange mr-2 w-60">
          <Text className="text-sm text-foxGray text-right ">{email}</Text>
          <StyledDivier className=" bg-foxGray" />
          <Text className="text-foxWhite pt-2 text-right ">{text}</Text>
        </View>

        <Avatar.Icon
          size={40}
          icon="account"
          color={COLORS.light.foxWhite}
          style=
        />
      </View>
    </View>
  );
}

export default UserSent;

Can someone help me change or rewrite my code so the bubble only takes up as much space as it needs but wraps after it reaches a certain length. enter image description here

Where and how is this Laravel kernel constructor called? [closed]

Where and how is this Laravel kernel constructor called? public fucntion __construct(Application $app, $Router $roouter) { } I have read the documentation and some online tutorial but I can find any clear explanation. I am learning Laravel and I am wondering where does this kernel constructor receives its arguments from. "POSTMOTERM" CLARIFICATION: Here is more clarity.I have checked the boostrap/app.php and it is only used for boostrapping the interfaces into the container class. What is not clear to me is where and how the Kernel class is instatiated and the arguments passed to the object calling the constructor.Something similar to; obj = new kernel(arg1,arg2) or, is the framework using some magic functions somewhere? Special gratitude to those who burn their eyeballs and brain cells on this trivia before it goes into a full blown menopause alias "MARKED AS DUPLICATE". To some of the itchy-finger keyboard warriors, a.k.a The mods,because I believe in th...
