Hi Kim,
Sometimes the text of an external link will get deleted, but the link itself is still in the HTML View of the page.
If you're in the Rich Content Editor and go into the HTML View, you'll see a bit of code that looks like
<a class="external" href="https://www.google.com/" target="_blank" rel="noopener"></a>
Normally, the linked line of text would be right in front of the </a> tag, but it was deleted, and the link itself wasn't.
If you remove that line of code, you should remove the stray external link icon.
