And nobody mentions the possibility that this guy and his wife may have an open or poly marriage, an agreement not as uncommon as most people think. Due to stigma most poly people don't tell everyone or anyone about their love life - because it is their love life, not that of a billion spectators or whoever.

About the spying I can't say anything. About their marriage I can say: Let the two decide what they make of it.

    Given that Huang said he was unfaithful to his wife and made a public apology to her, I don't think they had an open or poly agreement. As another poster mentioned there might not be a prenup either so a divorce (which is likely) will force Huang to hand over half of his shares making his wife a major shareholder overnight. That creates a lot of tension for people invested in Nvidia.

    Why are people speculating on another man's intimate relations?

    Not my business, don't care. Consenting adults and all that.

    Partly because it affects what is functionally one of the largest arms dealers in the digital space. Partly because it affects the giant global bubble that could crash half the planet and driectly impact the vast majority of every human living on it economically in extreme ways.

    Part because people just like gossip.

    While I can agree with you that he and his wife can be in a open marriage, if that fits them good for them honestly, the problem is that he slept with an alleged Chinese spy (probably used to be able to blackmail him and/or circumvent export restrictions) and a manager from NVIDIA (with the company rules that explicitally forbid them).

    I see this as a "who" problem more than a "what" problem.
