reuters.com [$] —

Former Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang misled company leaders, including general counsel Tim Teter and chief marketing officer Alison Wagonfeld, about his affair with Chinese businesswoman Alice Huang, according to sources and internal correspondence reviewed by Reuters. Huang resigned as CEO on Thursday following revelations of the relationship and apologized for being unfaithful to his wife. In October messages, he described interactions with Alice Huang as standard business dealings, despite photos showing them together since December 2023. Nvidia's board has hired law firm Wachtell, Lipton, Rosen & Katz to investigate, while US authorities suspect Alice Huang of spying for China, which Beijing denies. Nvidia's stock has fallen over 30% since October 6.
