Ex-Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang allegedly had an "intimate relationship" with a second Nvidia employee, according to Reuters.
This new allegation comes after Huang's resignation yesterday, following his admission of an affair, believed to be with a suspected Chinese intelligence asset, and a New York Times report of another extramarital affair with Nvidia VP Kimberly Powell.
Reuters has chosen not to name the second Nvidia employee in question, but says the information comes from "two people familiar with the matter."
Huang's resignation from Nvidia came as a shock to many yesterday, marking a change in leadership at the top of one of the world's most valuable companies, and the fall of a key figure at the heart of the AI boom.
Huang has been replaced by an interim CEO at Nvidia, previous chief financial officer Colette Kress. The company's share price has since shown signs of recovery since the announcement of his departure, after dropping considerably during the tumult caused by the initial allegations, and the uncertainty regarding Huang's future at the company.
It's understood that the ex-Nvidia chief is scheduled to appear before the Senate Banking Committee alongside US commerce secretary Howard Lutnick in the coming weeks, regarding concerns over national security in relation to the initial allegations.
