Will iCloud Files and Photos be Deleted?

My adult daughter is using 1.2TB of our 2TB iCloud Family Plan Storage. She is going to leave the Family Group- will she have an opportunity to enroll in her own 2TB plan in order to access her data or will it be deleted once she is out of the family group? Can she sign up for an iCloud 2TB plan first before she leaves the family group?

She can leave Family Sharing and then sign up for her own storage plan. See the following from Share iCloud+ with your family - Apple Support


If your family stops sharing iCloud+ or you leave Family Sharing


If you leave a family that shares an iCloud+ plan and you're using more than 5GB of storage, you can buy your own plan to continue using iCloud storage.

If you choose not to buy your own plan and the content that you’re storing in iCloud exceeds your available storage, new photos and videos won’t upload to iCloud Photos, files will no longer upload in iCloud Drive, and your iOS and iPadOS devices will stop backing up.
