My iPhone and my sons iPhone seem to be linked together as we both receive the same telephone call and messages, how can I separate them?

Hi @DDw1 are you using the same Apple ID ? Also check in settings, apps, phone, calls on other devices and untick that.

Then that's working as designed. Any communication linked to an Apple service (rather than a SIM) will be duplicated on all Apple devices using the same Apple ID.
