I gave my iPhone XS to my husband & my phone number is still on there...

Hi-I am the proud owner of a new 14Pro and I gave my XS to my husband to replace his 7. In Settings my old phone number is still showing up...

If I go to Phone, My Number shows my phone number even though he is signed into his iCloud account which has his phone number.

Under iMessage it has my phone number listed although it's not checked-I can't get rid of it there. His phone number and iCloud email address are both checked.

Under FaceTime it's the same as iMessage.

Is there anyway to get rid of my phone number other than erasing the phone and starting all over?

Thank you! Judy

iPhone XS
