Family Sharing not working on Apple TV + free trial

I just bought a new MacBook Pro and got 1 year free trail to Apple TV +. The free trial shows up on my Apple TV +, but on my family's devices and Apple ID it only shows they get 1 free week. How do i get family sharing to work? Thanks

Apple TV HD, tvOS 11

Check it’s enabled. Might need to be turned off and on again.
