Apple ID Verification

I’m trying to activate my Apple Watch but when it comes to enter the password for my Apple ID it has my husbands email address to verify. Why is it his email address?

iPhone SE, iOS 15

Did your husband pair the watch with his iPhone? If he did, ask him to do the steps in the article below.
