Applying a style to a table row pops out the row

[mazloum91]

I created a paragraph style that changes text to a certain size, color, and alignment. I am trying to use this style on text in the first row of a table. However, when I apply the style to the text the whole row gets popped out of the table into a new table (see photos). Is there an option in the style that is causing this? or a table property? any help would be appreciated.



I apologize if this has been answered elsewhere but it's a hard thing to put into a searchable term.
