How to remove my Apple ID from my wife's phone (leaving it on my phone only)?

I attempted to use my Apple ID on two phones (mine and my wife's). Big problem.


I want to delete the info on my wife's phone and let her get her very own Apple ID.


Do you know how I can do it?


Can I delete all the info on her phone, which has massive dupes in the contacts area?


Any suggestions?


Must she have an Apple ID (something she does Not want)?

Erase her phone using instructions in What to do before you sell, give away, or trade in your Mac - Apple Support


She needs to have her own Apple ID.

If you are both using a shared email account for your email and want to continue that, one option is to set up a new email account and forward that email to the email that you both are currently using. Then use that email to set up her Apple ID. How to create a new Apple ID - Apple Support
