New AppleID during a divorce???

I have always had my phone under my husband's AppleID. We are divorcing and I recently purchased a new phone.....Is there a way to keep all of my information from my old phone when I switch to the new one while using a new AppleID???

Same Apple ID on two iphones How do I change an Apple ID if they are both the same on two iphones? I had an old iPhone that my daughter is now using and still with AT&T. I got a new phone that I use through T-MOBILE. Both devices have the same Apple ID so all of my phone calls, messages, pictures etc goes to both phones. Do I have to completely reset one of the phones?

Unlinking 2 iPhones both registered to my Apple I.D. When I was gifted an Iphone XS I gave my Iphone 8 to my wife. Somehow when setting the phone up for her use I managed to give her phone the same I.D. as mine, so now photos, some messages and various other quirks appear on both phones. When I try to change the I.D. on her phone to her Apple I.D. it says the name is already being used by another I.D. If I login to my Apple I.D. account online I can see her phone under Devices, so I can delete the link and set up her phone using her I.D. right? NO. The Catch 22 is that to change the details on her phone I have to login to it, and as the I.D. registered to it is still mine, once I type in my password the phone is immediately registered back to my Devices. Is there any way to 'unlink' these 2 phones (without having to lose any data) and give the iPhone 8 my wife's Apple I.D. and allow us to live separate lives again?

Unfortunately, all purchases made cannot be transferred to another account for legal reasons.

Having backups not linked to an account are the only remedy in this situation.
