She shared an Instagram post that said: "Due to inflation my love will now be costing a thing."
And in case you aren’t well-versed in your JLo anthems, this in contrast to her song 'Love Don't Cost a Thing'.
In the 2001 track, JLo sings: "Even if you were broke, my love don't cost a thing."
Her fans seemed to agree with the statement and joked alongside the star in the comments.
One person wrote: "Yasssss!!! Gotta know our worth baby."
Another said: "Period! I’ve been saying this! Lol."
A third added: "Talk di tingzzzzzzzzzzzzz!!!! She not playin’ games wit’ yall!!!"
While seemingly fun and games, there is no indication Lopez was specifically talking about Affleck and their relationship.
Affleck previously insisted that he was grateful for having Lopez in his life and spoke of the good relationship he has with all the children involved in his life, including hers.
In an interview while on the red carpet for his new film The Accountant 2, he said: "Listen, I don’t read the stuff online much, and sometimes I get the sense that people perpetuate this idea of … they wanna find something negative to talk about. For the record, Jennifer Lopez is spectacular, great to my kids, great ongoing relationship with them."
"I love her kids. They are wonderful," Affleck added. "She is enormously important, tremendous person of a lot of integrity who I adore and am grateful to.
"I'm thrilled that the kids are here with me."
The actor noted: "That's the kind of thing where the relationship that you have with children like that is a joy in my life. Those kids are amazing and I'm glad that this is a movie they want to come to."
These sweet comments comes after Affleck said he was ‘embarrassed’ about opening up about the issues they were having, simply saying that it ‘feels vulnerable’.
