Scandal-ridden former Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang had another intimate relationship with a subordinate, marking the third allegation of an extramarital affair within the last week.

In addition to Alice Huang, of no relation, whom U.S. intelligence suspects is a Chinese spy, and Kimberly Powell, Nvidia’s vice president of health care, Reuters now reports a third woman in the mix. The outlet did not name the third woman.

Huang, 63, admitted to having an affair with Alice in a statement last week, although he did not name her.

“I was unfaithful to my wife,” Huang said in a company-wide message obtained by the Daily Beast. “My actions hurt her and our children. There is no excuse for what I did. I am deeply sorry.”

He and his wife, Lori Mills, met in college and have two children, Spencer, 35, and Madison, 34. Both work at Nvidia.

Huang, whose net worth exceeds $160 billion, announced his resignation as the company’s board convened a late-night meeting on Wednesday as they considered firing him. Stock in the AI company has also drastically fallen.

The walls began closing in on Huang after the New York Times reported last week that he had seemingly fallen into a Chinese honey trap.

Secretary of State Marco Rubio was reportedly behind the classified document brought to President Donald Trump’s desk in the spring, which Trump is said to have ignored.

That memo had concluded that Alice, a 49-year-old Chinese citizen, had been purchasing Nvidia’s advanced AI chips and smuggling them into China.
