FBI Probes Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang's Affair With Suspected Chinese Spy; Trump Defends Him

newsit.gr (Greek) —

The FBI has launched an investigation after Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang admitted to an extramarital affair with a woman suspected of spying for China, causing company shares to drop. President Trump has publicly defended Huang, calling him honest. Huang reportedly told Trump he had no idea the woman, Alice Huang, was a spy. Nvidia has started its own independent review, while China denies the espionage allegations as baseless. No evidence has yet been presented linking Alice Huang to Chinese intelligence. Secretary of State Marco Rubio reportedly sent a classified memo in spring 2026 warning officials about Huang's relationship. Huang has apologized to his family, and Nvidia says no corporate secrets were leaked. The company is central to US-China tech competition over AI chips.
