According to The Mirror, Cook's partner Katie Downes is "a source of tension" for the Sheffield rockers.
The 24-year-old glamour model wants Cook to move in with her near her hometown of Liverpool, which has upset the band, who want him to live in London.
"Jamie and Katie are finally taking the plunge and buying a place together," said a source.
"But they are arguing over where exactly to base themselves and now the Monkeys are getting involved.
"They're telling Jamie to get a pad in London where singer Alex Turner lives."
The insider added: "It's becoming an increasing source of tension - and Jamie is the one bearing the brunt of it.
"Friends are joking that she's turning into a modern-day Yoko Ono and turning Jamie away from the group."
Arctic Monkeys are currently recording the follow-up to 2007's Favourite Worst Nightmare LP.
