Alice Huang’s husband, Chinese businessman Kang Wei, reportedly appeared comfortable with his wife’s close relationship with Nvidia chief Jensen Huang, even jokingly describing her as the technology executive’s “personal assistant” to his associates.
According to a report by The Wall Street Journal, Kang had known Jensen for approximately a decade before introducing him to Alice, a former executive at Singapore-based Megaspeed.
People familiar with the couple told the publication that Kang had spoken openly about his wife’s closeness to Jensen for around two years, suggesting that he was aware of their relationship and did not appear particularly concerned about it.
Husband Allegedly Referred To Her As Jensen Huang’s Personal Assistant
The WSJ report claimed that Kang occasionally referred to Alice as Jensen’s “personal assistant” when speaking to people in his business circle.
The remark was reportedly made half-jokingly, although it offered an insight into how openly the couple’s associates discussed her connections with the Nvidia chief.
Jensen, who is married, was reportedly acquainted with Kang since the 2010s, according to US technology publication The Information.
Alice and Jensen were first publicly spotted together in June 2024, when they were seen mingling with other technology executives at a bar following a technology trade show in Taipei.
Meanwhile, investors in the technology industry told The New York Times that Alice and people associated with her had allegedly highlighted her connections to Jensen when seeking investment and promoting business opportunities.
Nvidia declined to comment on the WSJ report, while the publication said it was unable to obtain comments from Kang or Alice.
Who Is Alice Huang’s Husband Kang Wei?
Kang is reportedly in his early 50s and has been involved in China’s private equity industry for several years.
He founded Shanghai Hexi, a private equity firm, in 2010. Alice was reportedly one of its major shareholders and also held a senior executive position within the company.
The couple allegedly ran the business together from 2016.
Alice later became managing director of Megaspeed, a Singapore-based company that came under scrutiny over allegations involving the movement of advanced Nvidia artificial intelligence chips to China.
US intelligence agencies have alleged that Megaspeed was involved in smuggling restricted AI chips. Nvidia has denied the allegations.
Kang has also reportedly faced scrutiny over his business dealings. Chinese financial publication Caixin previously reported that he had come under criminal investigation over alleged stock market manipulation. Sources also claimed that Chinese securities regulators had previously imposed fines on him.
Singapore Police Issue Stern Warning To Alice Huang
The controversy surrounding Megaspeed has also attracted attention in Singapore.
In February 2025, the Singapore Police Force and Singapore Customs launched an independent investigation involving several companies and their key officers, including Megaspeed.
On Nov 12, 2026, Singapore’s Ministry of Home Affairs (MHA) provided an update on the investigation into Alice.
According to MHA, police concluded in February 2026 that there was insufficient evidence to establish that Alice had committed offences relating to possible false declarations made by Megaspeed.
However, investigators assessed that she had provided inaccurate information during questioning in an attempt to downplay her involvement in the company.
As a result, police issued her a stern warning and barred her from re-entering Singapore. She has not returned to the country since.
Investigations involving Megaspeed and six other individuals remain ongoing.
