Video of the married CEO of the tech company Astronomer Andy Byron and the company’s “Chief People Officer” Kristin Cabot caught in a warm embrace on the ‘kiss cam’ at a Coldplay concert at Gillette Stadium near Boston Wednesday night has gone viral.
Coldplay singer Chris Martin was commenting as the camera panned the concert crowd when the couple was seen snuggling but then got stunned looks on their faces when they saw themselves on the stadium video. Each of the couple reacted as if they were caught, with Cabot turning around with her face buried in her hands and Byron quickly ducking out of view. Cabot then was seen walking away.
Martin observed as the impromptu melodrama played out on screen, “Oh, look at these two. Alright, come on, you’re okay. Oh, what? Either they’re having an affair or they’re just very shy.”
This version posted to X has garnered well over 50 million views since being posted Thursday morning:

Page Six reported Byron’s wife initially took off her married name from her Facebook page Thursday morning, and then later deleted her account after it was targeted with comments on the video of her husband (excerpt):
Astronomer CEO Andy Byron’s wife, Megan Kerrigan Byron, quickly deleted her social media page after a video of her husband allegedly cheating at a Coldplay concert went viral.
Page Six observed that Megan’s Facebook page, which contained family photos, was no longer accessible as of Thursday morning.
Shortly before taking down her profile, she deleted her surname from her account.
Megan was quick to take action after several people bombarded her account with comments on Andy being spotted with his company’s chief human resources officer, Kristin Cabot, at Wednesday night’s concert in Boston.
The New York Post reported Byron recently ‘gushed’ about hiring Cabot:
