Are you possibly sharing an Apple Account? if so, that’s not recommended, and all sorts of “fun” awaits.
On the Contacts display for the user, tap Edit, tap on the label box just to the left of the email address or the social media address (depending on where you’re editing), and select the type of email or social media from the list. Home, Work, whatever.
If the available list shown in the pop-up does not match your needs, you can add a different email type by selecting Add Custom Label, or Add Custom Service.
What’s in that list now, beyond the defaults? That’s either been added by you, or by someone else with access to a shared Apple Account.
Select the contact you wish to edit, then tap the Edit button in the upper right.
There’s a section on Contacts in the iPhone docs:
Edit contacts on iPhone - Apple Support
Add and use contact information on iPhone - Apple Support
Siri is pretty good at picking up email and other contact info from mail messages or Messages or other sources, and can also detect new contact info for existing contacts, and will usually offer to save it.
What happened here, I don’t know.
No I’m not sharing an apple account with my partner and I don’t think he has my new password as far as I’m aware anyway, before I had put his other email address in his original email address was already linked into my contacts and it had automatically added his facebook and messenger that I know he uses but I had never seen this other email and he also had a few other emails I wasn’t aware of and as soon as I added the second one a second messenger wi to PR automatically was there and if I scrolled down to the bottom of his contact details it also said linked with iCloud email and gmail accounts I’ve tried clicking on the second messenger but it doesn’t do anything?
