Comments Field Returning "Value" when Item Rejected

I have a simple approval flow connected to a SharePoint list that is triggered when a new item is created. The issue is that when a user clicks "Reject" and leaves a comment, when submitted, the Comment shows as "value" in the email and when forwarded to the requester the field shows as blank. I've attached screenshots. 

Any assistance is greatly appreciated, thank you.

    In the Flow run history, what does it show the comment value as?

      Rob Ellis the Comment field is actually missing from the flow run history which is quite strange. Please see run history data below and :
