transfer details from one iphone/sim to another iphone/sim

My friend has split up with her partner and he is insisting that she give him back the iphone with the sim card that he gave to her. It has all her personal stuff, banking and photos. She has got another Iphone - can she set up an icloud account to store the details on her sim card and then transfer it to that new phone and number? Once she has done that is it safe to delete everything on the returnable iphone. I would be grateful for any advice

There is no data stored on the sim card.
