Kilner, 32, asked Walker to pay her over half of his £27 million fortune to save their dying marriage, Daily Mail reported.
Earlier this year, Walker was exposed for fathering a second child with influencer Lauryn Goodman.
After the scandal made the news, Walker and Kilner, who shared four kids, spent the past year trying to patch things up.
However, Kilner is said to have sought preliminary legal advice, which could see her pocket £15 million, even when she decided to stay in the marriage with Walker.
"Kyle and Annie are arguing about pretty much everything," an insider told The Sun. "She's told him she will only consider giving it another go if he gives her half of his money first. She's been told she's entitled to half of his wealth if they split and doesn't want another penny of her share going to Lauryn."
The couple have also spoken to solicitors about a financial arrangement, as Walker is happy for Kilner to have the money so she and the kids can have financial security, according to the source.
Their marriage is still in a challenging period as Kilner is considering filing for divorce.
Walker, 34, got booted out of the family's $4.4 million home in Cheshire by Kilner at last year's Christmas for the incident. He rented a mansion nearby to stay close to his family and even issued a public apology for his actions.
Things were getting a bit better for the couple as at the Euro 2024 in July, Kilner and the kids came to Germany to support Walker. England went all the way to the final but lost the title to Spain.
British media reported last month that Walker has now returned to the Cheshire house. The England defender still has to sleep in a separate bed.
Walker is considered one of the best right-backs of his generation. Since joining Man City from Tottenham Hotspur in 2017, he has won five Premier Leagues, two FA Cups, four EFL Cups, two English Super Cups, one Champions League, one European Super Cup, and one Club World Cup.
