A viral moment at Coldplay’s Music of the Spheres concert in Boston has placed Astronomer CEO Andrew Byron under public scrutiny. During the show, the 50-year-old tech executive was caught on the venue’s kiss cam with Kristin Cabot, Astronomer’s Chief People Officer. Coldplay frontman Chris Martin joked, “Oh look at these two! Oh what? Either they’re having an affair, or they’re just very shy,” sparking visible panic from the pair.
Byron, reportedly startled, blurted, “f**king hell, it’s me,” while Cabot whispered, “this is awkward.” Both quickly pulled away, with Byron ducking out of the camera’s frame and Cabot covering her face. The video quickly spread across TikTok, with one user saying, “Imagine getting caught by Coldplay.”
The viral clip led internet sleuths to dig into the pair’s professional profiles. Byron, who is married, has since deactivated his LinkedIn and social accounts, while Cabot’s profile remains active. Neither has addressed the incident publicly, but the speculation about their relationship continues to dominate social media discussions.
