VIRAL : Astronomer CEO Andy Byron caught in alleged affair at Coldplay concert !

During a Coldplay concert at Gillette Stadium in Boston on July 16, 2025, a lighthearted “Kiss Cam” moment turned into a public relations crisis for Astronomer CEO Andy Byron. The camera captured Byron in a close embrace with Kristin Cabot, the company’s Chief People Officer, prompting speculation about an extramarital affair. Coldplay frontman Chris Martin, unaware of their identities, humorously remarked, “Oh look at these two… either they’re having an affair or they’re very shy,” as the pair appeared on the jumbotron.

Byron and Cabot, visibly startled, quickly separated. Byron ducked behind a barrier, while Cabot shielded her face with her hands. The moment, shared widely on social media platforms like X and TikTok, sparked a flurry of reactions. Many users expressed sympathy for Byron’s wife, while others criticized the pair’s public behavior. One commenter noted, “They are both incredibly stupid, sorry. Why would you go to a concert of all places if you are having an affair.”

The incident has fueled online discussions about workplace ethics and professional conduct, with no official statement yet from Byron, Cabot, or Astronomer. The viral clip continues to circulate, amplifying scrutiny of the executives’ actions.
