When Coldplay performed at Boston’s Gillette Stadium, fans expected music, lights, and maybe a few tears of joy. But what no one expected was drama. The kind that belongs in a Netflix limited series. Thanks to a well-timed Kiss Cam moment, the night turned into an internet frenzy—and at the center of it is Andy Byron, CEO of the tech company Astronomer, and Kristin Cabot, the woman caught beside him.
The kicker? That woman wasn’t his wife.
The Kiss Seen Around the Internet
Concertgoers were enjoying the usual emotional high Coldplay brings when the stadium’s Kiss Cam landed on a couple in the crowd. The couple—laughing, comfortable, and seemingly affectionate—was none other than Andy Byron and Kristin Cabot. Nothing unusual… except that Andy Byron is married to Megan Kerrigan Byron.
Within hours, the moment hit TikTok, Twitter (X), and Reddit like wildfire. Internet sleuths quickly identified the pair, thanks to Andy’s public-facing role in the tech world and the eagle eyes of social media detectives.
Who Are the People Involved?
Andy Byron is the CEO of Astronomer, a leading data orchestration company in the tech space. He’s known for his work in the data engineering field—but now, he’s known for something else entirely.
Kristin Cabot is reportedly a longtime acquaintance of Byron and works in tech circles herself. Her LinkedIn presence and digital footprint have been scrutinized since the video went viral.
Megan Kerrigan Byron, Andy’s wife, hasn’t made any public statements—yet. But fans quickly found her social media accounts, particularly her Facebook page, which became a hotbed for speculation, sympathy, and side-eyes.
The Internet Reacts
The reactions have been mixed, ranging from humorous to furious. Some users dubbed the event “Cheat Cam 2025,” while others defended the duo, arguing that no one really knows the full story. Still, many pointed out that Byron’s wedding ring was visible, and the couple’s body language appeared far more intimate than platonic.
One tweet read:
“Bro really got exposed on the Jumbotron at Coldplay 💀 That band literally ruins lives with emotions.”
Another?
“Imagine being at a Coldplay concert and finding out your marriage is over from Twitter.”
Yikes.
A PR Nightmare for Astronomer?
This isn’t just personal—it’s professional. Astronomer, a respected name in tech, now has a potential PR crisis on its hands. Searches for “Astronomer CEO cheating” have spiked, and Reddit forums are ablaze with discussions questioning the company’s values, leadership integrity, and the broader “tech bro” culture.
It’s too early to tell how the company will respond, if at all, but the digital footprints of the moment are indelible.
So… Was It Cheating?
We don’t know the full story. Maybe Andy and Megan were already separated. Maybe Kristin is just a friend. Or maybe the camera caught something it shouldn’t have.
But in today’s world, perception is reality—and the perception is not great.
Coldplay concerts are meant to stir emotions, sure—but this one stirred a whole new category of “fix you.”
Final Thoughts
The internet has always loved a good scandal—but this one hits different. A public moment. A tech CEO. A wife not in the frame. And a Coldplay song playing softly in the background. It’s the perfect storm of drama, tech, and heartbreak—2025 style.
Whether this turns into a tabloid flash or a tech industry reckoning remains to be seen. But for now, one thing is certain:
The Kiss Cam doesn’t lie.
