USA – During Coldplay’s recent concert at Gillette Stadium in Foxborough, Massachusetts, the CEO of Astronomer was caught cheating with an employee in an unexpected way. During the break between songs at the concert on the evening of July 16, couples in the audience were randomly selected by the show’s organizers to appear on the main screen and express their feelings.
Suddenly appearing on the screen in front of tens of thousands of viewers was the image of a man affectionately hugging his “girlfriend” from behind. As soon as they saw their image, the two immediately separated and turned away. This action even made Chris Martin, lead singer of Coldplay, comment on stage that “This couple must be having an affair or they are simply shy”.
The man who ducked his head in embarrassment in the video is Andy Byron, CEO of Astronomer, a private data infrastructure “unicorn” startup that is expected to be valued at more than $1 billion (VND26,000 billion) by 2022.
It is worth noting that the woman Byron hugged that night was not his wife, but the company’s human resources director, Kristin Cabot.
The video recording the “secret” moment between the two during the performance quickly became a hot topic on social media right after being shared.
It is known that Astronomer’s CEO currently has a wife and 2 sons. While many sources revealed that Cabot has been divorced since 2022.
After the incident, Mr. Byron’s wife’s personal account is said to have deleted information related to her husband and then closed it on social networks.
Meanwhile, netizens continued to flock to the personal accounts of the “affair” couple to make mocking comments.
Netizens believe that this is evidence that Andy Byron is having an affair with his subordinate. They point out that the way the two stand too close, naturally hug each other’s waists, and look at each other is not like a normal relationship. Many people think that being “exposed” about an affair in front of tens of thousands of people at a concert, receiving millions of views online, is a big shock. Notably, CEO Andy Byron’s wife deleted her husband’s last name from her personal page after the video went viral.
The incident is still spreading on American social networks. Chris Martin could not have expected that just one camera shot would cause the entire technology community to “go crazy” and stir up the media.
