Who Is Alice Huang? Her Alleged Affair With Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang – Hollywood Life

Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang is at the center of controversy because of an alleged affair with a Chinese businesswoman suspected by U.S. intelligence officials of working as a spy for Beijing: Alice Huang. She allegedly had a close relationship with the billionaire tech executive while working for Singapore-based technology company Megaspeed International.

The allegations raised questions about Jensen’s personal life, since he is married to his wife, Lori Huang, as well as Nvidia’s business dealings with China. On November 8, 2026, Jensen admitted to being unfaithful to his wife, while Nvidia’s board announced an independent investigation.

Here’s what we know about Alice and her relationship with Jensen.

Who Is Alice Huang?

Alice, also known as Huang Le, is a Chinese businesswoman and former executive at Singapore-based Megaspeed International, a data center and cloud computing company with reported business ties to Nvidia.

According to Channel NewsAsia, Alice became Megaspeed’s managing director in March 2023. She and another director resigned from their positions in November of that year.

Despite sharing a surname, Alice and Jensen are not related. Her connection to the Nvidia CEO reportedly developed through their professional interactions and the company’s business relationship with Megaspeed.

Did Alice Huang Have an Affair With Jensen Huang?

Jensen developed a close personal and romantic relationship with Alice, The New York Times and The Wall Street Journal reported, as he subsequently admitted to the affair.

“My actions hurt her and our children. There is no excuse for what I did. I am deeply sorry,” Jensen wrote, according to Reuters.

The two were photographed together at an industry gathering in Taiwan in June 2024. They were also seen at a dinner hosted by Jensen in Taipei in May 2025. Video footage from the event showed Alice kissing Jensen on the cheek while he put his arm around her.

Although Jensen admitted to his infidelity, he did not identify Alice by name in his message.

Jensen has been married to Lori since 1985. The couple met while studying at Oregon State University and share two children, Madison and Spencer, who work for Nvidia.

Is Alice Huang a Chinese Spy?

U.S. intelligence officials reportedly suspected that Alice was recruited by Chinese intelligence to gather information from Jensen and potentially influence his views on American restrictions on advanced AI chip exports to China.

According to The New York Times, U.S. authorities believed Alice had developed a relationship with Jensen as part of an alleged intelligence operation. The reported concerns also involved Megaspeed, which came under scrutiny over suspicions that it helped Chinese companies obtain advanced Nvidia chips despite U.S. export restrictions.

However, China rejected the accusations on November 9. Foreign Ministry spokesperson Guo Jiakun described the claims as unsubstantiated smears.

Singapore also pushed back. The government said neither it nor its officials had expressed concerns about Alice’s alleged intelligence connections or conducted investigations into her personally. However, Singapore police confirmed that investigations into Megaspeed are ongoing.

What Is Nvidia’s Investigation Into Jensen Huang About?

Nvidia’s board announced an independent investigation on November 8, 2026, following reports that Jensen may have been targeted by a foreign intelligence operation.

A committee of independent directors, assisted by outside legal counsel, will oversee the investigation. Nvidia said the board has no reason to believe that U.S. national security or company secrets were compromised, but that the inquiry will examine all available information.
