Two Things:

A. Start with a Restart:

Restart your iPhone, and see if it then is fixed.


B. Use the Photos App:

  1. Open: Photos app
  2. Locate: the items
  3. Tap: Select (top-right of the day these were taken)
  4. Tap: the photos to deleted
  5. Tap: the Trash Bin on the bottom-left corner of the screen.
