Access to old text messages

Dear Apple Community,


If I removed a device (not belonging to me) by going to the Apple logo, selecting System Preferences, then selecting Apple ID. From there I selected the device I wanted to remove. At the bottom, I selected "Remove from Account...".


My question is, does that device still have access to my old text messages? I'm pretty sure they won't get any new messages, but will they keep the messages that they had access to before?


Thank you so very much.

Kim
