That js a conundrum @pegleg322 

It maybe some glitch so if this was me I'd delete them and then periodically check if this happened again.

The advice I offer is my own and does not represent Samsung’s position.

Photos, for example, from WhatsApp, will appear in Gallery.  Perhaps there are other programs surreptitiously contributing to Gallery ...?

Hey there

As @davehorne has rightly said, images coming to your device from WhatsApp and any other Meta owned social media will go to your gallery. If that's the case, shouldn't be a concern

@pegleg322: Further to the above, if you open the Gallery app and tap on the Albums tab, are the images stored a dedicated folder? For instance, WhatsApp images will be displayed in their own album, and this may help you to verify the source of the pictures.

I am having this exact same issue. I deleted the photos and they showed up again. Now they are on there twice.
