Andy Byron, the former CEO of Astronomer, became the internet’s summer obsession after attending a Coldplay concert at Gillette Stadium in Massachusetts in July 2025. A viral kiss cam moment made the rounds on social media after Andy was seen holding a woman in what appeared to be a romantic embrace — and it wasn’t his wife, Megan Kerrigan Byron. As multiple outlets pointed out that the woman is his company’s Chief People Officer, Kristin Cabot, affair rumors quickly skyrocketed. Shortly thereafter, Andy resigned from Astronomer.

Below, learn about Andy’s marriage, the affair rumors and what exactly happened at the Coldplay concert.

Astronomer released a statement about the situation via LinkedIn on July 18, 2025. It read, in part, “Astronomer is committed to the values and culture that have guided us since our founding. Our leaders are expected to set the standard in both conduct and accountability. The Board of Directors has initiated a formal investigation into this matter and we will have additional details to share very shortly.”

The company added that Andy had “not put out any statement, reports saying otherwise are all incorrect.”

“All right, come on, you’re OK,” Chris said about Kristin and Andy, according to Newsweek, before adding, “Either they’re having an affair or they’re just very shy.”
