Remove programmatically UILabel after adding - swift - ios

Question

I have made a UIView and two UILabels programmatically. The labels say something like: "There are no posts, follow someone to add to your feed.".
self.update.count shows the number of posts to show. So if it is 0 is should show the labels that I made. If not it should not show any of the labels.
I have made this code but it wont remove the labels and the UIView again? it is inside the viewWillAppear:
if self.updates.count == 0 {
print("THERE ARE NO POSTS: \(self.updates.count)")
self.tableView.addSubview(self.noPostView)
self.tableView.addSubview(self.noPostLabel)
self.tableView.addSubview(self.noPostText)
//noPostView.anchorToTop(view.topAnchor, left: nil, bottom: view.bottomAnchor, right: nil)
self.noPostView.centerXAnchor.constraintEqualToAnchor(self.tableView.centerXAnchor).active = true
//noPostView.centerYAnchor.constraintEqualToAnchor(tableView.centerYAnchor).active = true
self.noPostView.anchor(self.view.topAnchor, left: nil, bottom: nil, right: nil, topConstant: 80, leftConstant: 0, bottomConstant: 0, rightConstant: 0, widthConstant: self.view.frame.width, heightConstant: self.noPostLabel.frame.height + self.noPostText.frame.height)
self.noPostLabel.anchor(self.view.topAnchor, left: nil, bottom: nil, right: nil, topConstant: 80, leftConstant: 0, bottomConstant: 0, rightConstant: 0, widthConstant: self.noPostView.frame.width, heightConstant: 50)
self.noPostLabel.centerXAnchor.constraintEqualToAnchor(self.noPostView.centerXAnchor).active = true
self.noPostText.anchor(self.noPostLabel.bottomAnchor, left: self.noPostView.leftAnchor, bottom: nil, right: self.noPostView.rightAnchor, topConstant: -20, leftConstant: 35, bottomConstant: 0, rightConstant: 35)
self.noPostText.heightAnchor.constraintEqualToConstant(60).active = true
self.noPostText.centerXAnchor.constraintEqualToAnchor(self.noPostView.centerXAnchor).active = true
self.loadingSpinner.stopAnimating()
} else {
print("THERE ARE: \(self.updates.count) POSTS")
self.tableView.willRemoveSubview(self.noPostView)
self.tableView.willRemoveSubview(self.noPostText)
self.tableView.willRemoveSubview(self.noPostLabel)
}

Answer 1

Just hide the labels when you don't need them i.e "self.noPostLabel.isHidden = true" and show them when needed.

Answer 2

You are using willRemoveSubview(_:) which apple describes below.
The default implementation of this method does nothing. Subclasses can
override it to perform additional actions whenever subviews are
removed. This method is called when the subview’s superview changes or
when the subview is removed from the view hierarchy completely.
