Unwanted iCloud usage between 2 people…

Basically, me and my friend have been sharing an iCloud for over 4 years. To play games on the same account and other stuff. However recently it’s starting to become an issue, especially in our phone contacts. I have all of his family and friends phone numbers, and vice versa. Just wanted to know how to unlink/unshare the iCloud account and make all of this go away. (It is my iCloud account that we shared and still share, not his)
