Jensen Huang has been making headlines for his affair with Singapore-based Chinese businesswoman Alice Huang. However, things escalated when reports surfaced claiming that, apart from Alice, Jensen had two more affairs with other women, including Kimberly Powell, Nvidia’s vice president of healthcare.
This led Jensen to resign from his position at Nvidia. Amid his resignation as Nvidia’s CEO, Jensen’s past statement in which he shared that his wife, Lori, never complained about him spending less with his family resurfaced.
Jensen Huang shared that his wife, Lori, never complained while he spent more time building the company Nvidia
In May 2026, Jensen Huang appeared on the podcast How I Built This with Guy Raz. During the conversation, the 63-year-old business tycoon spoke about the personal sacrifices involved in establishing Nvidia. He recalled how his demanding academic and professional commitments led him to miss several important moments in his children’s lives. According to reports, Jensen and his wife, Lori, have two children, Madison Huang and Spencer Huang, who are believed to be in their 30s now.
Jensen said that while his children were still young, he was completing his master’s degree at Stanford University. His workload often kept him away from family activities, including his children’s karate tournaments. He credited his wife, Lori, with taking responsibility for the family during that period. He also described his wife’s support as crucial to his ability to build the company. He said:
“When the kids were still young, I was finishing my master’s at Stanford. And so I was busy on multiple levels. And yeah, I missed all their karate tournaments. I missed a lot.”
In the same conversation, the former Nvidia CEO went on to say that although he missed several important moments involving his family, his wife never complained about it. He then said that as Lori was there, he felt secure enough to take professional risks. He was quoted as saying:
“I don’t remember Lori complaining even one time, one nanosecond, or even one instance. That’s the gift that she gave me. I’ve always felt safe taking risks. Maybe it’s because I know that when I get home, Lori is still there. Maybe it’s because when I get home, I know the kids are there.”
The couple first met in the early 1980s, when they were both studying electrical engineering at Oregon State University. At the time, Jensen was 17, and Lori was 19. They were lab partners. Jensen graduated in 1984, and Lori graduated the next year, in 1985.
Jensen was 20 when he told Lori that he would become CEO by the time he reached age 30. During a speech at Hong Kong University of Science and Technology in 2024, the Nvidia CEO shared details about the promise that he made to Lori before marrying her. He added that he didn’t know how he would become CEO but somehow managed to make a promise to Lori with courage. While today, Nvidia is one of the defining AI giants in the world, little do people know about Jensen’s struggle behind it.
At the age of 15, Jensen took up a job at a restaurant named Denny’s in Portland, Oregon. He took on responsibilities that included washing dishes, clearing tables, and waiting on customers. This location had a special connection to Nvidia because it was where Huang and his friends, Chris Malachowsky and Curtis Priem, discussed their business idea in 1993. This meeting eventually led to the founding of Nvidia.
For those unaware, Huang, Malachowsky, and Priem founded Nvidia in 1993, and before Artificial Intelligence (AI) became famous, the company mainly sold its powerful computer chips to the gaming industry.
