Issacs also pays nearly $5,000 a month in support for two children from a past relationship, $2,500 on auto expenses and transportation, $5,708 in maintenance and repair on his properties and another $5,732 on groceries.

He has also asked for help in paying the $21,677 he gives in charitable donations and the $10,000 he spends on entertainment, gifts and vacations.

Issacs requested that Blige pay him an additional $100,000 for attorney fees and another $30,000 to his forensic accounting fees.

Blige and Issacs signed a prenuptial agreement two days before their December 2003 wedding day that includes a waiver of spousal support.

But Issacs is now arguing that it should not be considered valid or enforceable because Blige had legal representation at the time of the signing and he did not.

Issacs said at the time he also did not ‘understand the consequences of what I was about to sign’, he writes in the filing.

He then argues that the fact that Blige has already given him two payments in spousal support is evidence she ‘has her own reservations regarding the validity and enforcement’ of the prenup.

Issacs also claimed in the filing that he had a ‘significant role’ in growing Blige’s career, negotiating ‘practically every deal on behalf’ of the songstress since their marriage, court papers state.

‘Although Ms Blige was a recording artist before we married, her income significantly increased during the marriage as I was her personal manager,’ he claims.

The nine-time Grammy Award-winner had released six studio albums before the couple got married.

She had already made the Billboard Hot 100 in 2001 with one of of her most famous songs, Family Affair, and her album Love & Life made the Billboard 200 in August 2003, selling nearly 300,000 copies in its first week.

Blige, who on average now makes $371,749 a month, will release a new album later in October and has a supporting role in a feature film due to premiere in 2017.

The singer has yet to respond to her estranged husband’s support demands.
