Multiple profile pics? Wrong profile pics

Something very strange is happening with my Apple ID.


I noticed that on my iPhone, the profile pic that is showing for me is not my profile pic. It is actually my wife's profile pic.


On my Apple watch, I see her profile pic there too.


When I check the System preference on my *iMac,* there is no profile pic showing (I get the default, no pic chosen image)


OK, so over to my laptop ... when opening System Preferences, I see a different profile pic. And then when I click on Apple ID, there is yet *another* profile pic.


What the HECK is going on? How is it that if I set a new profile pic, it is not updating across the board?


Oh, and one final thing ... when I checked activity App on my Apple Watch the other day, it showed *my wife's first name* on a message.


So, this is not just a case of me being precious about the profile pic, but more a question about why I am seeing her details on *my* devices.


The pic below should demonstrate this.

MacBook Pro 15″, macOS 10.15

Hi Ian Lloyd,


I understand you are seeing varying contact pictures for your Apple ID, including that of a family member.


I would recommend going to iCloud.com and changing your profile pic there, and ensuring all the same information for the contact is mirrored across devices in your contact.


If the issue persists then please contact Apple Support: Get Support


Hope this helps!
