Jensen Huang’s Wife and Daughter Were Photographed With Red Roses in Paris Just Days Before His Affair Apology

A family trip to Paris has taken on a new significance after photographs showed Nvidia chief executive Jensen Huang posing with his wife and daughter just days before he publicly admitted to being unfaithful.

Huang, 63, was pictured in the French capital with his wife, Lori, and their daughter, Madison. In one photograph, Lori and Madison were seen holding red roses as the family enjoyed their time together.

The images were reportedly taken around a week before Huang sent a message to Nvidia employees acknowledging that he had betrayed his wife and hurt their children.

On November 8, the billionaire executive issued a public apology, accepting responsibility for his actions and expressing regret over the damage caused to his family.

“I was unfaithful to my wife. My actions hurt her and our children. There is no excuse for what I did,” he wrote in the message, adding that he hoped to regain their trust over time.

The statement did not identify the woman involved.

The admission came amid reports concerning Alice Huang, a businesswoman and former executive at Singapore-based data center company Megaspeed. US officials reportedly suspected she had links to Chinese intelligence, and that her relationship with Jensen Huang may have been part of a broader intelligence operation.

Those allegations have not been independently established in public, and Chinese officials have rejected claims of involvement.

Nvidia’s board has since announced an independent investigation into reports that its chief executive may have been targeted by a foreign intelligence effort. Huang has said he supports the inquiry and will cooperate fully.

The Paris photographs have drawn attention because they show the family together shortly before the public apology. However, the images do not establish what Lori or Madison knew about the relationship at the time, or how they responded privately.

Huang met Lori while they were students at Oregon State University. They married in 1985 and have two adult children, Madison and Spencer, both of whom work at Nvidia.

The company has become one of the most powerful businesses in the artificial intelligence industry, making the personal controversy surrounding its chief executive an issue attracting attention well beyond Silicon Valley.

For now, Huang remains in charge of Nvidia while the board’s investigation proceeds. He has publicly acknowledged the hurt caused to his family, but the questions surrounding the alleged relationship and possible national security implications remain under scrutiny.
