Hi kerra130
What might have happened is something I did myself by accident when I was prompted to create a secret email address and is very simple to fix;
Login to your icloud account and go to the settings page
https://www.icloud.com/settings/
click on the manage link under 'hide my email'
From here you should be able to remove the unwanted email address.
To delete an email address from your account checkout this article https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT201356
I have the option to add but not remove.
Thanks but I don’t see an option to remove.
Is an email address you recognise or does it seem to be randomly generated
Randomly generated. It’s not a valid email address
