Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang misled executives about Alice Huang relationship, report says

Jensen Huang misled senior Nvidia leaders, including general counsel Tim Teter and chief marketing officer Alison Wagonfeld, about his relationship with Chinese businesswoman Alice Huang, according to Reuters, following his resignation as CEO on Thursday. In autumn 2025 and October 2026, Huang described his interactions with Alice Huang, a former executive at Nvidia customer Megaspeed International, as standard business dealings in messages to colleagues. He also discussed suing the New York Times over an October article about their public meetings, though no lawsuit was filed. Huang apologized for being unfaithful to his wife and disappointing the company, without naming Alice Huang, who US authorities investigated for possible spying for China. Nvidia's board hired law firm Wachtell, Lipton, Rosen & Katz for an independent investigation, and shares have fallen over 30 percent since October 6.
