i gave my wife my old iPhone, while doing so i erased everything and restored as new using her Apple ID. But for some reason when she types in part of an email address my email contact come up on her phone. (She doesn’t have my contacts)

If I do vice versa with her email contacts they do not show up on my iPhone.

What is causing this strange behaviour?

PS: I’m running iOS 10.4 and she is running iOS 10.3.1. (Will try iOS 10.4 on her iPhone later today)

Same problem on iOS 11.4. Had to remove the contacts one by one. My god, please Apple fix this bug and allow global removal of recent email addresses.

Thanks
