Reports suggest that Lopez and Affleck's potential split will not come cheap for the "Argo" actor.
The singer allegedly wants him to part with half his fortune because she picked up the tabs during their nearly two-year marriage.
According to Radar Online, a source close to the singer shared that Lopez, who is reportedly worth $400 million, has been saying she'll seek redress in Affleck's wallet after realizing that she funded most of their lavish lifestyle throughout their relationship.
The source added that Affleck "always grumbled about spending money," so Lopez decided not to bother him to avoid hearing his complaints about her spending habits.
"One of the little-known secrets is Jennifer paid for much of their marital expensesand now she feels he owes her," the source said. "She's adding up all those private jet bills she puts on her plastic, the hotels, and meals, clothes, coffee runs, gas. The high cost of living was done on her dime. She paid the lion's share for that $60 million mansion they bought, too."
"Ben took so much money out of her, at least that's what she's saying," the source added.

The insider went on to suggest that the "Let's Get Loud" singer is not to blame for their relationship's rupture and that the situation would have been different if Affleck had stayed in the marriage.
Their troubled marriage has opened her eyes to how much her estranged husband allegedly cuffed out of her, and she is now "demanding a full inventory of what she spent versus what he spent and wants all the money back."
"She isn't the one who gave up on their marriage and she's feeling seriously burned and is out for blood," the insider told the news outlet. "If he had stayed in the marriage like a good boy, she wouldn't have minded."
"But he abandoned her and ultimately, Jennifer always gets payback and now she's ready to play hardball," the source added.
Jennifer Lopez Is 'Over' Trying To Fix The Marriage

There seems to be no way to salvage the situation, as a source shared that the "Ain't Your Mama" singer has given up on trying to save her marriage with Affleck, accusing the 51-year-old actor of being the cause of their split.
According to the Daily Mail, the industry insider revealed that Lopez is "over" trying to fix the situation and has now realized that she can't do any "more" to save her relationship with the "Gone Girl" star.
"Jenny has had enough and she really tried but she can do no more, it's not getting any better, it's worse," the insider told the news outlet, adding that she is "shocked" by the bad press she's been getting.
"If people could see what she has really gone through they would be easier on her. Ben is a great guy but he can be grumpy and a downer," they continued. "I think the world saw that in photos like when they were at the Grammys last year; he wouldn't smile. If they saw how it really was, they would not attack her."
"He chain smokes and cusses and seems irritated a lot of the time. Great director and actor, but not a lot of laughs with him, you know?" the insider added. "He is a wonderful father though."

The singer's family is seemingly not happy with the toll her rumored split with Affleck has had on her and wants her to "cut her losses" and move on.
Lopez's mom, Guadalupe Rodríguez, wants her to forge ahead with the divorce from Affleck as she fears that the "This Is Me...Now" singer is losing sight of herself and deserves better than a man who has decided to "throw in the towel" rather than fight for their love.
"Jennifer's mom told her, 'Cut your losses and move on to avoid getting any deeper in this mess,'" an insider told the news outlet. "She told her that she's wasted years believing that Ben was some kind of knight in shining armor."

According to the source, Affleck "was not the person" Lopez "built him up to be."
"It's taken too much of a toll on her and because of this she has lost sight of who she is and what she stands for," the insider told the Daily Mail, adding that Lopez feels like "Ben doesn't deserve her," a sentiment that her sisters Leslie Ann and Lynda also share.
Ann and Lynda reportedly think the singer is "getting so caught up in what it was supposed to be that she isn't seeing it for what it is now."
"They want her to file for divorce first and get on with her life – focus on her kids and career," the source shared.
