Make Page Six a Preferred Source Jen Affleck has accused her estranged husband, Zac Affleck, of draining more than $100K from their shared bank account without her knowledge.
The “The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives: Orange County” star says the dishonest move was the final straw that led her to file for divorce after seven years of marriage.
“It seemed like he wasn’t being honest, so I went to check our bank, like, the money is gone,” Jen — who is currently pregnant with their fourth child — confesses in Episode 4 of the new Hulu series. “There [was] over $100,000 in there.”
The 27-year-old MomTok member claims Zac, 30, “invested a ton of money in Bitcoin” behind her back and “lost it.”
“He was like, ‘I f–ked up. You wanted to separate so I didn’t tell you because I knew if you found out you would divorce me,'” Jen recalls. “I said, ‘Yeah, I’m done. I’m divorcing you.'”
According to Jen, Zac — who did not film any scenes for the “Mormon Wives” spinoff — has allegedly gambled away their money “multiple times” before, both through “online poker” and “investing in crypto.”
“There’s so much I’m feeling right now,” the “Dancing With the Stars” alum explains. “There are feelings of betrayal, regret, disappointment, hopelessness. It’s sad that I’ve had to go through as much pain as I’ve gone through to make this decision.”
Jen ultimately filed for divorce from Zac on Nov. 3, a decision she called “really, really hard.”
Days later, the reality star shared a disturbing video of Zac criticizing her postpartum body and cleaning habits.
The former couple met on a Mormon dating app in 2018 and got married the following year.
They share three children, Nora, 5, Lucas, 3, and Penelope, 1, and are expecting their fourth.
Jen and Zac’s marital struggles began on “The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives” after the former medical school student berated her for attending a Chippendales show with her castmates.
They briefly separated after Season 1, but got back together when Jen learned she was pregnant with Penelope.
As the seasons continued, Zac struggled to support his wife’s career ambitions, including her desire to act and model for Sports Illustrated.
A new report also claimed he was a “nightmare” on the set of “Dancing With the Stars” and tried to dictate what dance moves she could do and what costumes she could wear while she was competing on Season 34.

Following Jen’s divorce filing, Zac penned an emotional apology to his estranged wife.
“I was supposed to protect your heart and I failed,” he wrote in a lengthy TikTok caption. “I’m sorry for the way I spoke to you. I’m sorry for dimming your light. I’m sorry I was so young and immature. I’m sorry I couldn’t make the changes I needed to. And I’m sorry I let things get to this point.”
“I can’t change the past, but I can promise to keep working on myself and do everything I can to be the best father, co-parent and friend moving forward.”
“I want to approach this next chapter of life with nothing but love and gratitude for everything we shared. And the beautiful family we created and will continue to raise.”
“The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives: Orange County” is currently streaming on Hulu.
