Apple Sharing contacts

I changed recently to iCloud family sharing and now my wife’s iPhone has access to all my contacts.

how do I prevent it and how do I revert to her original private contacts?

iPhone 6 Plus, iOS 11

Thanks a lot for answering and helping me. this is quite painful and I cannot yet resolve it.

I did check, and my wife uses a different Apple ID than mine.

It all started when I initiated family sharing a couple of weeks ago. noticed today that both our contacts are merged on both phones.

Checked as you suggested and we are having different Apple IDs.

How did this happen? what can be done?
