Hey @BinkDeBook,
Sorry to hear about that, as it definitely sounds like you've each put in quite a bit of time and effort into the account.
Unfortunately, this would be a side effect of sharing the account as it's intended for each player to be using their own individual EA account.
In those situations where multiple people are on the same account, I'm afraid we really don't have a way around it as this is technically against our User Agreement. Which isn't meant as a callout, just to share some clarity on why this type of thing will be very limited in terms of alternative options.
It's likely you may not both be able to sign into the same account simultaneously after this and would need to create a second account, though this would also be starting from scratch as progress cannot be transferred across EA accounts.
The stats that are migrated will be based on your primary (highest level) account, as one of the few things that cannot be merged.
Badges are a different beast entirely as they'll work a bit differently depending on the type of badge. Feel free to click through the spoiler for more details on that as this post is already approaching wall of text status. 🙂
Some badges from Apex Legends’ earlier seasons previously earned on a non-primary account (an account that isn't the highest level at the time of Cross Progression) may not be merged into the new Cross Progression enabled account which will be used going forward.
If these badges can be earned again through future gameplay, that is the only way to reacquire these badges.
For badges that cannot be obtained again due to their nature - e.g. a badge awarded for completing a former season’s Battle Pass or achieving a particular rank in an old season - Respawn is investigating returning these badges to affected users in the future.
We'll have more to communicate about this investigation and its outcome at a later date.
