It occured when updating

from "gatsby": "^2.21.33", to "gatsby": "^2.25.1",

My solution was, removing the prefetch plugin and using this https://www.gatsbyjs.com/plugins/gatsby-plugin-google-fonts/. Rewrote gatsby-config.js. Working now.

Hey guys, since the plugin isnt owned by gatsby I close the ussue, but I don’t “solve” the issue, as the gatsby-plugin-prefetch-google-fonts is much deprecated and it was archived I have no choice but search for another plugin that does the trick, luckily gatsby-plugin-webfonts still update and solve the issue.
