How do I remove the name of someone that has suddenly appeared on one of my ancestor's profiles? It is an orphan and the person is from Australia. (If that makes any difference) But how do I remove him from my tree and the profile of my ancestor? He is not related, as far as I know.

The profile is for Jesse Steven Cox in my tree. The unwanted add-on is named William Edward Cox.

On the page https://www.wikitree.com/photo/jpg/Cox-10376 you should be able to "remove William Edward Cox from the image" by selecting the appropriate radio button and saving the changes. (I hope that this is what the problem is.)

Thank you so much for helping. Turns out all I had to do was remove his name under "edit image details".

Go to the Edit tab and scroll down.  On the right, you will see links for father, mother, siblings, spouse, and children.  At the bottom of the list of children, you will see a link for [add/remove child].  Click it and follow the instructions.  You will be unlinking/detaching William Edward.
