Presented as appropriate: Huang is said to have deceived Nvidia executives about the affair

Huang has already resigned from his position as head of Nvidia. However, there is no peace in the affair surrounding his liaison with a possible Chinese spy. According to one report, the company's founder actively lied to other executives about it.

According to insiders, Nvidia boss Jensen Huang, who resigned on Thursday, misled several company executives about the nature of his relationship with Chinese businesswoman Alice Huang. He had an affair with the former top manager at Nvidia client Megaspeed International, according to two people familiar with the matter and internal correspondence seen by Reuters.

According to the insiders, he presented his relationship with Alice Huang, who is not related to Jensen Huang, and with the company as appropriate after press inquiries in autumn 2025 and again in October 2026. An article in the "New York Times" from October 2025 about public meetings between the two led him to comment on the contacts to executives without speaking of an affair. Jensen Huang also explained in two messages from October 2026, seen by Reuters, to chief legal officer Tim Teter and marketing director Alison Wagonfeld, among others, that the contacts corresponded to normal business relationships with customers. The company and a representative of the former boss declined to comment. Teter and Alice Huang left inquiries unanswered, and there has been no response from Wagonfeld.
