Widgets appear on sidebar but I cannot remove them

Hi,

I need help removing a few widgets that have appeared on the homepage sidebar without me putting them there. I am using the Elara free theme. I have gone to appearance>widgets, and also appearance>customise>widgets. In neither can I find the “extra” widgets showing so I really don’t know what other options I have to remove them.

For a little bit of context:
my initial issue seemed to be related to Gutemberg plugin messing up with my Widget page. While I was trying to solve that with my hosting service provider, those “ghost widgets” appeared.

I have had my host provider try to deal with that but they say they can’t remove it as it seems to be an issue related to WordPress or the theme itself. I have also contacted the theme support team and they have recommended I place my query in this forum.

Thanks for any help.
