CEO Andy Byron Viral Video: At a recent Coldplay concert in Boston, a surprising moment caught public attention when Astronomer CEO Andy Byron was seen in an intimate position with his colleague, Kristin Cabot.
As the band’s signature “Kiss Cam” panned through the crowd, it landed on Byron and Cabot capturing them standing closely with Byron’s hands placed gently around her waist.
Their visibly startled reaction only fueled speculation, especially as they both quickly tried to compose themselves on camera.

The incident sparked further curiosity when Andy Byron’s wife, Megan Kerrigan, removed her married surname from her Facebook profile shortly after the concert. This subtle but telling move has led to rumors of a potential divorce.
