iCloud contacts merged

I was messing around with my iPhone and clicked something I got all of my moms old contacts. Ok so a while back my mom gave me her old phone but never reset it and just put in my Apple ID so now I have all her contacts from back then. She is in my iCloud. Is there a way to reverse it?

Once she gave you the phone and you signed in, all the info on the device was merged to your iCloud account. As long as your Mom is not currently using your Apple ID, then she is not in your iCloud account. With the merged data you now have on your iCloud account, you will just need to go through and manually delete the contacts you do not want as well as any photos and apps that were on the device when you took it over.
