The coronavirus pandemic has not only stopped Robert De Niro from working, but he's also taken quite the pay cut this year as well.

In court, De Niro's estranged wife Grace Hightower asked for an emergency order for her husband, 76, to raise her monthly American Express credit card limit from $50,000 to $100,000, according to Page Six.

Hightower's lawyer told the judge that De Niro had cut her credit card limit from $100,000, also claiming that she and her two children have been banned from the actor's New York compound.

Attorneys for De Niro said the actor has come under financial strain as the coronavirus pandemic has limited or halted business for the restaurant chain Nobu and Greenwich Hotel, of which, he has stakes in both, resulting in the cut to the credit card limit.

Robert De Niro and wife Grace Hightower have split and the actor has cut Hightower's credit card limit.

Additionally, Krauss cited the actor's prenuptial agreement with Hightower, which states that the actor owes his wife $1 million each year as long as he's making at least $15 million a year, and the spousal support will be adjusted proportionally should De Niro make less than $15 million.

De Niro is only expected to make about $2.5 million in 2020 and 2021 for "The Irishman," lawyers said, as most proceeds have already paid.

The judge ruled that De Niro should maintain the $50,000 credit card limit, but pay Hightower $75,000 so that she and their two children can find a summer home
