How do I prevent others from seeing or reading my messages on my iPhone 6?

I sent a message to a Facebook contact via the messenger app on my iPhone 6. The individual later sent me a screen shot from my spouse mentioning something I had said in the message. How did my spouse get access to my messages and how do I stop this? I did not see any reference to my specific problem.

The messenger Icon on my screen shows a red number on the corner of the Icon. My Facebook icon on the home screen also used to show a red number ,telling me I had so many new Facebook messages. It doesn't now . How can I restore that?

My Facebook icon does not show me when new unread Facebook posts to me arrive. Messenger does show a little red number in the top right corner of the icon. My Facebook used to do the same.
