Andy Byron Affair Exposed: After his alleged covert romance with Astronomer’s chief people officer, Kristin Cabot, was revealed during a recent Coldplay performance, Andy Byron, the CEO of Astronomer, found himself in the public eye, seemingly against his will. A video that went viral on social media on Thursday seems to show Andy Byron and Kristin Cabot having a passionate moment together, which has led to a lot of conjecture about their relationship.
Astronomer CEO Andy Bryon’s Alleged Affair with HR Kristin Cabot:
Frontman Chris Martin accidentally drew attention to a pair in the crowd during Coldplay’s performance. The couple, later identified as Andy Byron and Kristin Cabot, appeared wrapped in each other’s arms. As the cameras focused on them, they abruptly tried to cover their faces.
Martin mingled with the audience when he spotted the pair. He commented on them without realizing his words would spark rumors of a workplace affair. The Kiss Cam captured Byron, who is married to Megan Kerrigan, at the Boston concert on Wednesday with Cabot. As the footage played, Cabot covered her face with her hands while Byron quickly ducked behind a barrier to hide. Martin’s spontaneous remark, “Oh what… either they’re having an affair or they’re very shy,” sent the entire Gillette Stadium into laughter.
