Would have to ask @gvalero, @Manan_Mehta or @SantiagoPerez for this. They have good experience with WhatsApp.

I have struggled a lot with this one but there’s no workaround for this currently.  
The best you could do is download the image and then share.  
I wish it was easier the way it is done on Meesho but I believe PWAs may not be able to do that. Upvoting this request!

What @Manan_Mehta said. There’s no way to share it directly from the app. I have also unsuccessfully tried.

As my friends have written before, send a real imagen from device’s memory is quite difficult or impossible so far. The plan B could be its shared url and send it into Whatsapp message.

here you can read further info about this:
