On Thursday, US Attorney General Todd Blanche reiterated that the Justice Department has not yet concluded whether Alice Huang, the Chinese businesswoman involved with former Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang, was a Chinese spy. At a press conference, Blanche stated, "of course" the FBI was investigating reports suggesting Huang was working for the Chinese government.
Donald Trump, in an interview released later that day, echoed the uncertainty. When asked if Huang should have resigned, the president said it was not yet determined whether Huang was a spy. Trump added, "If the woman was a spy, yes. If the woman was not a spy, perhaps it would be different."
The inquiry into Huang's role has been ongoing since at least October 2025 when The New York Times published a report linking Huang to former Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang. Huang subsequently stepped down, a decision that followed a year-long saga beginning with the NYT report. The affair's origins trace back to an October 2025 NYT report connecting Jensen Huang to Huang, a former executive at Singapore-based Megaspeed, Nvidia's valued cloud partner.
Subsequent reports claimed US intelligence officials had concluded Huang was acting under Chinese intelligence directives. However, Beijing firmly denied these allegations. Huang herself has not commented on the matter. In February, she left Singapore and was subsequently barred from re-entry by Singapore's Home Affairs Ministry, though this investigation did not involve espionage allegations.
Huang's departure came after she admitted in November to infidelity with her husband, an admission devoid of specifics about the relationship.
