Sharing an iCloud account and Siri

I want to share all photos, calendars and contacts with my wife. So we are sharing the same iCloud account. I was concerned iMesseging would work but it seams fine. Only problem I have run into seams to be that Siri keeps changing 'My Info' to whoever changed it last. So if my wife selects her address card, a few minutes later it will change on my phone.

Does Siri sync with iCloud somehow or does in need a unique iCloud account.

Now Siri has stopped working completely and I'm not if it is because of this or a general server overload

Anyone know of any other problems with sharing an iCloud account?

Danny's work around works but it is still a work around. It would be nice if Apple fixed this.

As far as I'm concerned this is not resolved and is ridiculous. I don;t want separate apple ID's as we want to share photos and everything else associated with iCloud with the family, which is why we have a family plan with ONE apple id, mine. Is it really so difficult to get the phone to just use the contact you assign to it? Seriously? I'm ******* switching to Android when I pay off this phone.
