Shortcode breaks HTML

    Hello.

    I ran into an issue with the shortcode inserted in Twenty Twenty-Three theme. This shortcode block works fine in the theme part:

    [post_coauthors]

    Here is its code from the child’s theme functions.php:

    add_shortcode( 'post_coauthors', 'myshortcode_coauthor' );
function myshortcode_coauthor() {
return coauthors_links();
}

    But it also breaks the structure of an HTML document:

    <html>
<head></head> - empty
<body>
<a>author's name and link</a> - first time here
<meta> - all header tags are here
<main>
<div class="wp-block-group">
<a>author's name and link</a> - secondly here

    As you can see:

    1. HTML head content is shifted to <body>
    2. Content of the shortcode is displayed twice

    Even if I try to disable all other plugins it does not help. The HTML structure is still broken. Co-Authors Plus Troubleshooting Mode does not help either, it just activates parent theme without the shortcode.

    I’ll be glad for any suggestions or ideas on how can I fix it. Thank you.

    WP Version 6.3.1
    Co-Authors Plus Version 3.5.15
    Twenty Twenty-Three Version: 1.2
