Game sharing early access

I bought the gold edition and console share with a friend of mine. We both have it downloaded into our consoles. Will he have early access as well or does he have to wait the week?  Thanks for any i...

    @BrianH1970Your friend will have Early Access to Battlefield 2042 if they have a qualifying game version redeemed to their account.

    The pre-order and Edition bonuses and perks are account-bound and not platform-bound.

    So ultimately, your friend can play early if you are willing to let them play using your account…

@carsono311 So basically with early access being a perk to the gold and ultimate he'll have to wait the extra week to play without having to log into my account to do so.

Only reason I ask is with console sharing one of us could buy a standard digital game, or we could both chip in, both download the game to our own consoles (even though it's purchased on one account) and play at launch. This is the first time console sharing something with early access. I could access the Battlefield beta early but he had to wait the two extra days. I was wondering if the same holds true here, and I suppose it does.

Thank you all for the responses!

@BrianH1970 I think you described it correctly.

I certainly could be ( and hope so for your sake ) wrong, but that is how it works on other platforms.
