Description

### Description

Upon activating the AMP plugin, I find that the news page on Google Publisher for iOS and Android shows an empty white screen for my articles. The AMP plugin can't find any faults.

I've tried removing all other plugins to test if its a conflict, but that doesn't seem to make a difference. I've been using the AMP plugin for over a year, but this error appeared in Dec 2022 - since then i've had to move forward as a non-AMP website.

### Reproduction Steps

Install the AMP plugin - it then causes a white page where my articles should be in Google News for iOS and Android

Research direction

Start by reproducing the white screen with AMP plugin version 2.4.0 using the reported Google News or Google Publisher flow on iOS and Android. Compare article rendering with AMP enabled and disabled, then inspect the AMP plugin integration and capture browser or platform logs. Done means the articles render normally in the affected Google Publisher destinations.
