A routine concert moment has turned into a career-defining incident for two tech executives. Astronomer CEO Andy Byron and HR director Kristin Cabot became instant internet sensations when Coldplay’s Kiss Cam captured what appeared to be a compromising moment between them at Boston’s July 16 show. The viral clip shows the pair reacting with visible discomfort before quickly exiting the venue, sparking immediate speculation about their relationship.
Background checks reveal a complicated personal situation for both parties. Cabot, who finalized her divorce from Kenneth Thornby in 2022, is actually married to Andrew Cabot of Privateer Rum. Meanwhile, Byron’s wife Megan has since scrubbed her social media presence. The incident has had immediate professional consequences, with both executives being placed on leave from their positions at Astronomer.
