Jensen Huang misled Nvidia executives over affair, Reuters reports
Former Nvidia chief executive Jensen Huang repeatedly told senior executives that his interactions with former Megaspeed executive Alice Huang were routine business, according to a Reuters report.
Former Nvidia chief executive Jensen Huang misled senior company executives about his affair with Alice Huang, a former executive at Nvidia customer Megaspeed, according to internal messages and sources cited by Reuters. Huang, who resigned on Thursday and apologized for being unfaithful to his wife, had portrayed their relationship to company leadership as routine business dealings.[1][3][4]
Reuters reported that Huang told Nvidia general counsel Tim Teter and marketing chief Alison Wagonfeld that his interactions were appropriate on two occasions a year apart, first in the autumn of 2025 and again in October 2026 following inquiries from reporters. In October 2025, Huang also urged Nvidia's legal team to consider action against The New York Times over coverage of his public meetings with her, though no lawsuit was filed and the newspaper never received a legal demand.[1][2][3]
Photographs verified by Reuters place the two together as early as December 2023, though it remains unclear when the relationship turned intimate. U.S. authorities suspect Alice Huang of spying for China, an allegation Beijing denies and Reuters has not independently verified. Nvidia's board hired law firm Wachtell Lipton on Nov. 10 to conduct an independent investigation, which remains ongoing.[1]

REUTERS SAYS HUANG TOLD HIS OWN EXECUTIVES THE RELATIONSHIP WAS ROUTINE BUSINESS Citing internal messages and sources, Reuters reports that Jensen Huang misled senior Nvidia executives about his affair with Alice Huang, a former executive at Megaspeed, a customer of Nvidia. He described their dealings as routine business. It happened twice, a year apart. In the autumn of 2025, with reporters asking questions, he told general counsel Tim Teter and marketing chief Alison Wagonfeld that his interactions with her were appropriate. In October 2026, with the press asking again, he told the same two people the same thing. In October 2025 he urged Nvidia’s legal team to consider action against the New York Times over an article about his public meetings with her. No lawsuit was ever filed, and the paper never received a legal demand. Reuters verified photographs of the two together as early as December 2023. When the relationship became intimate is still not clear. US authorities suspect her of spying for China. Beijing denies it, and Reuters has not independently verified the allegation. Huang resigned on Thursday and apologised for being unfaithful to his wife. The board hired Wachtell Lipton on 10 November to run an independent investigation, and that review is still going.
