Nvidia’s billionaire founder Jensen Huang has been literally wiped from his longtime company’s website in the latest humiliation stemming from his growing sex scandal.

Huang’s name and headshot were promptly removed from Nvidia’s website under “founders” after he resigned as CEO in disgrace on Thursday, a Daily Beast review found.

Huang’s resignation comes after he was rocked by a trio of alleged extramarital affairs—two with Nvidia employees, with the latest emerging in a Reuters report Thursday afternoon, and another with a suspected Chinese spy.

The removal hints at how remaining executives really feel about Huang. In a public statement about his resignation, Nvidia thanked the 63-year-old for his “profound” and “immeasurable contributions to the company and the industry.”

Behind the scenes, the company wiped its website clear of any ties to Huang by early Thursday afternoon.

Nvidia’s board has said that it had “no reason to believe that either national security or Nvidia secrets were compromised,” but also committed to probing the matter.

In his letter to Nvidia employees before stepping down, Huang admitted being unfaithful to his wife, Lori Huang, whom he married in 1985 and with whom he has two children, Madison and Spencer Huang, but didn’t specify who he cheated with.

“I owe my family and all of you an apology. I was unfaithful to my wife. My actions hurt her and our children. There is no excuse for what I did. I am deeply sorry,” he wrote.

The alleged spy Huang is rumored to have had an affair with, Alice Huang, has since returned to China and is living in Beijing, sources have told Bloomberg. Despite a shared surname, the two are not related.
