Astronomer Tech CEO Andy Byron went viral for all the wrong reasons at a recent Coldplay concert.
During Coldplay’s gig at Gillette Stadium in Foxboro, Massachusetts, on July 16, the band used a Kiss Cam to showcase couples in the audience on the jumbotron, but Byron did not seem thrilled when he was caught with his arms around coworker Kristan Cabot.
However, Andy is married to Megan Kerrigan Byron, not Cabot. Viral footage showed Byron trying to duck out of camera range while Cabot who is Astronomer’s Chief People Officer, hid her face, leading many viewers to subsequently speculate whether the coworkers may have been caught having an affair.
In the wake of the viral moment, social media users found Kerrigan Byron’s Facebook page. While many shared sympathetic comments and tried to uplift Kerrigan Byron, others poked fun at the situation in an insensitive way.Kerrigan Byron ultimately deleted her Facebook account entirely after being bombarded with a deluge of social media conversation.
Byron deleted his LinkedIn account shortly after he went viral as well.
