Nvidia’s CEO is making headlines, and this time, it has nothing to do with artificial intelligence.
Jensen Huang, the billionaire behind one of the world’s most powerful tech companies, has admitted to cheating on his wife, Lori Huang. But the story gets even more complicated.
According to reports, Huang had a relationship with a Chinese businesswoman whom US intelligence officials suspect of working for Beijing. Nvidia has since launched an independent investigation into whether its CEO was targeted by a foreign intelligence operation. The espionage allegations remain unproven.
And now, the internet is talking about another possibility: one of the most expensive divorces in history.
According to Forbes, Huang’s fortune was estimated at approximately $155 billion on November 9. Under California’s community property laws, assets acquired during marriage are generally divided equally in a divorce.
That means Lori could potentially receive more than $75 billion if the couple separated.
But there’s a catch.
No divorce has been announced, and the final amount would depend on their financial agreements, property ownership and other legal details.
The couple met while studying engineering at Oregon State University and married long before Nvidia became a global technology giant.
Lori has been part of Huang’s journey from the beginning.
For now, Huang has publicly apologized and expressed hope that his family can heal.
Meanwhile, Nvidia is facing questions about its leadership, security and possible exposure to foreign intelligence.
What started as a personal scandal has become an international business story.
And potentially, a very expensive one.
