Is this template ignoring SEO title?

Hello,

It is only today that I discovered, that my meta tile is a combination of
Site title (found in Customize, Site identity) + the title of the page set in Yoast meta title per page

It means that it is ignoring what I put in Yoast SEO meta title, by grabbing the Site title and putting it in the front of the title.

How do I fix this?

I looked at the php file, to hardcode this, but no luck so far.

Any help is much appreciated.
