It's his personal life. As long as he didn't coerce anyone or otherwise cause harm, then there's no problem here. Why should corporate care about what he does when he isn't making them money? Why should anyone at all care? If anything, this is solely between him and his wife, and he didn't marry Nvidia.

Anyway, of anything it's the company that's losing out, not him. He's rich enough to relive a few more lives without ever working, and he's at retirement age. Meanwhile Nvidia now has to handle not having his leadership.

Because it wasn't his personal life.

Having an affair with a spy/$8b customer who has targeted you and may make the company complicit in committing actual crimes is very much a problem for the board.

Having multiple affairs with employees that open the company up to reputational and legal liability is very much a problem for the board.

In other words, he was doing this while he was making them money in a way that can affect the bottom line, therefore it is - literally - their business.
