Estranged from family member who created my @sky.com email - can they get access to my emails?

When I was younger, a family member made me my @Sky.com email address that is still my main one today. We are no longer very close, but it occured to me - do they have access to my mail as the primary account who created the account?

Only if you told them your password. You can change it here, if you want to be certain: https://skyid.sky.com/resetpassword/skycom

 

To be doubly sure, you could set up 2 factor login (but be sure to make a separate note of your Recovery Code if you do so and keep it safe)

Sounds like you are an additional user.

No they have no access to your email account, unless they know your password.
