Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang Admits Affair With Suspected Chinese Spy in Letter to Staff, Board Launches Probe

In a Sunday memo to Nvidia staff, Jensen Huang admitted having an affair with Alice Huang, a Megaspeed executive US intelligence believes was recruited by China's MSS to target him, writing 'I was unfaithful to my wife... I am deeply sorry' and 'I take full responsibility'. Nvidia's board initiated an independent investigation with outside counsel, saying it has no reason to believe national security or company secrets were compromised. Three House committee chairs demand Huang attend a closed-door briefing November 18, and Senator Chris Coons says 'Congress will investigate and get answers' — turning the scandal into a wildcard for Huang's push to loosen China chip export controls.
