Nvidia preparing to oust CEO Jensen Huang: report
The Wall Street Journal has reported Nvidia’s board is preparing to oust CEO Jensen Huang after he had two extramarital affairs, including one with a suspected Chinese spy.
The Wall Street Journal has reported that Nvidia's board is preparing to oust CEO Jensen Huang following two extramarital affairs. One of these affairs involved Alice Huang, a Singapore-based Chinese tech CEO and controlling shareholder of Megaspeed International. France 24 reports that Jensen Huang admitted to the affair, and the company has launched an independent investigation into reports that the CEO was targeted.
Alice Huang, also known as Huang Le, previously held senior roles at a Shanghai investment firm. According to reports from The New York Times via KahawaTungu and Hindustan Times - World News, U.S. authorities concluded she was a Chinese intelligence asset who passed information to Beijing while developing a relationship with Huang. The reports state she was allegedly recruited to influence Nvidia to make its advanced chips more available in China.
Megaspeed International is listed as an official cloud partner by Nvidia. The company reportedly came under U.S. investigation in October 2025 regarding whether it helped Chinese customers obtain advanced Nvidia chips subject to export controls. While the intelligence allegations have been reported, Reuters noted it could not independently verify the claim, and China has denied the accusations.
