I would argue that there is no expectation of privacy for messaging apps without end to end encryption. There is always the man in the middle listening.
And it also doesn't even matter because WhatsApp claims to be E2E-encrypted.
It's up to you to trust Meta or not, but people who trust them do have an expectation of privacy.
It also misses the mark because you're talking about an eavesdropper intercepting messages and the OP is the receiver sharing the messages with a third party themself.
