Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang hired Heller Inc., a crisis communications firm known for handling sex scandals, at least a year before publicly acknowledged an extramarital affair with a woman suspected of spying for China, Wired reported .
Heller Inc. founder Risa Heller has advised prominent men through personal scandals and sexual misconduct accusations, according to a 2023 New York Magazine profile. Her reported clients include former congressman Anthony Weiner , celebrity chef Mario Batali , and former New Yorker writer Jeffrey Toobin.
Wired also reported that Nvidia’s internal communications team was told to copy Heller Inc. on press inquiries about Huang shortly after an October 2025 New York Times report about whether Nvidia was helping Chinese companies evade U.S. chip export restrictions.
The Times reported that Megaspeed, a then little-known Singapore-based data center company with ties to China, had acquired nearly $2 billion worth of Nvidia chips. It described Megaspeed CEO Alice Huang, the woman later linked to Jensen Huang, standing next to him at a Taipei gathering of Nvidia customers.
Heller and Nvidia didn’t immediately respond to requests for comment.
On Sunday, Nvidia published a statement from Huang acknowledging an affair with a former Megaspeed executive, though he didn’t name Alice Huang. Nvidia’s board separately announced an independent investigation, citing reports that Huang “has been the target of a foreign intelligence effort.”
