November 14 - Reuters exclusively reported that former NVIDIA CEO Jensen Huang had downplayed his relationship with Chinese businessperson Alice Huang to multiple company executives, including General Counsel Tim Teter and Chief Marketing Officer Alison Wagonfeld. Internal communications reviewed by Reuters show that when responding to inquiries from company executives in October of this year, Huang described their interactions as normal customer business dealings and emphasized that contacts with Megaspeed International were routine commercial activities.

People familiar with the matter said that as early as 2025, after The New York Times first reported the two had met publicly, Huang also explained their relationship to some company executives but did not admit to an extramarital affair. He also discussed taking legal action against The New York Times, but ultimately neither party filed a lawsuit.

Jensen Huang resigned as NVIDIA CEO on November 12, after publicly admitting infidelity to his wife and apologizing to the company. NVIDIA's independent directors have hired a law firm to conduct an independent investigation. NVIDIA's stock price has fallen more than 30% from its October 6 closing high, with market value evaporating by more than $1.8 trillion.
