Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang began using crisis PR firm Heller amid probe and affair reports
Sources say Jensen Huang has worked with crisis communications firm Heller since at least October 2025; Heller is known for handling high‑profile sexual‑misconduct scandals. The engagement coincided with reporting that linked Huang to a woman tied to Megaspeed — whom U.S. intelligence has identified as a Chinese spy, according to the New York Times — and with inquiries into possible export‑control circumvention; Nvidia’s board has opened an independent investigation and Huang has acknowledged an extramarital affair.
