Buttons disappear when ad loads - ios

Question

I coded an app with some buttons. One of them shows an interstitial Ad by pressing it. When I close the ad all the buttons on the view disappear. How can I fix that?
//Collection Sound
var boomSound = NSURL(fileURLWithPath: Bundle.main.path(forResource: "135936__bradwesson__collectcoin", ofType: "wav")!)
var audioPlayer = AVAudioPlayer()

#IBOutlet weak var BT6: UIButton!
#IBOutlet weak var BT5: UIButton!
#IBOutlet weak var BT4: UIButton!
#IBOutlet weak var BT3: UIButton!
#IBOutlet weak var BT2: UIButton!
#IBOutlet weak var BT1: UIButton!
var interstitial: GADInterstitial!
//When reaching x Taps
var taps = Int(){
didSet {
if taps == 330 {
print("You have reached 5 taps !!")
}
}
}

This is called each time view appear on screen, not when it loads. Move that code inside ViewDidLoad method
//When view is loaded
override func viewDidAppear(_ animated: Bool) {
super.viewDidAppear(animated)
BT6.isHidden = true
BT5.isHidden = true
BT4.isHidden = true
BT3.isHidden = true
BT2.isHidden = true
//Hiding all but one button when the view controller loads
}
