The snopes article mentions an exception to that - if there’s something reflective like a lake, it can act as a second source. I’d never heard about that, pretty neat!
Everything else looks normal though. Also polarized glass doesn’t make these effects, although polarization might be part of the effect those wacky glasses use.
My first thought was there might be a big mirror Ike a glass building or something behind the camera to cause the extra rainbows but photoshop makes the most sense.
Rainbows always form a circle around the sun’s position, unless we suddenly gained a couple of new suns this is obviously edited

Or someone shot the photo through polarised glass, I’ve seen that kind of effect before

On its own no it doesn’t, however some camera lenses have a polarised lens filter and the combination of the two can cause a spectral moiré effect
Though tbh I reckon what you alluded to is even more likely, someone put some of those glasses over their phone camera
