Messenger is private what you put in there does not show up on your timeline
I don’t know what you mean by ‘they turned up on a public domain’ Do you mean ‘your timeline’ or your friends time line
Did you copy them off your granddaughters time line ?
When I forget my phone or don’t take any photos I just ask whoever has taken them to airdrop them over to me

It's difficult to advise without knowing exactly what's happened. Has your friend posted them, or have they appeared on your wall? There is always an option to delete your own photos on Facebook, so I'm not sure what the problem is.

If it's the latter, you should be able to go into your Activity Log and delete them from there if you can't do it from the photos themselves.

This sounds trivial, but it isn't to me.
We went to a family wedding - (just 30 of us) and I left my phone at home, so I copied and pasted some photos my granddaughter had taken without asking her.
She is furious with me (and I don't blame her) because I sent some of them to a friend via facebook messenger but somehow they have showed up in the public domain on Facebook.
Don;t ask me HOW, because I thought everything in Messenger was private.
I have had a very nasty message from her (granddaughter) which has really upset me and I feel really sneaky for sharing her photos with a friend.
Please can someone advise me on how to take them down? I'm afraid to delete them in case I delete them from my Granddaughter's page as well, but I can't find a way of 'unsending' the things.
