As long as you have not deleted the images from inside Lightroom, you should be able to go to each image and restore a previous edit version.  

 

Please see: https://helpx.adobe.com/lightroom-cc/using/edit-photos-mobile-ios.html 

 

As far as why Google would lose access to edited versions of your images.. that is perplexing since Lightroom would have exported a static (non-changing) version of your image(s) when sharing to Google.  Same as if you exported edited images to your camera roll first and then imported into Google.  Perhaps it depends on which file format you use to export from LR Mobile.  It would help to have specific steps and settings from you, or an end to end screen recording of what you see.

 

I hope some info here helps a bit!

Sounds like a Google Photos problem, not a Lightroom problem, so maybe there is a more appropriate forum at Google.com?
