A resurfaced video from a restaurant in Taiwan has ignited new controversy for Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang, showing his daughter capturing the moment he kissed the woman at the center of a US intelligence investigation. The video, filmed in May 2025, features Madison Huang—Nvidia’s senior director—taking a video of her father with Alice Huang (who used to work at the Singapore-based data center operator Megaspeed).
Viral video sparks speculation about family knowledge of affair
The video clip shows Jensen Huang wrapping his arm around Alice’s waist, kissing her on the cheek at a crowded restaurant.
Madison Huang and her then-fiancé Nico Caprez can be seen comfortably conversing with Alice at the event.
Awareness of family: Online users quickly commented on the relaxed atmosphere of the meeting, indicating that the affair was already well-known around Huang.
Reactions online: While users on X argued about whether the family supported the relationship, they pointed out that this gathering indicates that the marriage communication was already understood prior to the public announcement.
Psychological strain: Moreover, some reports included online rumors suggesting that the family pressure was the reason for not making the divorce official years ago.
Consequences in the billions: Falling stocks and business investigations
The video was published shortly after Jensen Huang sent a critical email to Nvidia’s employees on November 8, confessing to his wrongdoing in his marriage to Lori Huang.
The public confession resulted in an instant market reaction causing a loss of billions in his wealth:
Loss of wealth: Huang has lost $7.4 billion in just 30 minutes of trading on Monday bringing his wealth down from $162.2 billion to $154.7 billion.
Billionaire ranking: This drop moved Huang from the 8th to the 10th position on Forbes real-time billionaire list.
Corporate investigation: Nvidia began an internal investigation in order to find out whether its CEO was a victim of foreign intelligence operation, maintaining trust in his leadership.
The intelligence aspect: Megaspeed purchase and Alibaba chip transactions
US intelligence authorities are scrutinising Alice Huang in regard to her connection to the Ministry of State Security of China.
The focus shifted to transactions valued at $4.8 billion in AI chip which were made through Megaspeed, which sells high computing capacities to corporations.
