Two top executives of a software company have been caught allegedly having an affair after being spotted on a kiss camera during a Coldplay show in Boston.
A blonde woman and a man with gray hair were spotted embracing on the big screen at Gillette Stadium during the Massachusetts stop of Coldplay’s world tour on Wednesday.

Video of the moment, which was shared online, shows the pair appearing on-screen.
As they realise they’re being broadcast to the entire stadium, the woman covers her face with her hands and the man ducks completely out of frame.
“Oh, look at these two. You’re all right. You’re OK. Oh, what? Either they’re having an affair or they’re just very shy,” Coldplay lead singer Chris Martin joked.
The clip of the pair quickly spread across social media platforms including X and TikTok, where they racked up millions of views and thousands of comments.
Online sleuths were quick to identify the pair as tech company Astronomer chief executive Andy Byron and chief people officer Kristin Cabot.
People then realised the pair were both married, but to other people.
Byron’s LinkedIn account, which has now been deleted, was flooded with comments from people making jokes about the incident.
“How as Coldplay with Kristin?,” one person asked.
“So, are we all here because he cheated on his wife during a Coldplay concert?,” another said.
The internet then managed to find Byron’s wife on Facebook, inundating her posts with comments of sympathy.
“So sorry that you’re going through this,” one person said.
“This is a terrible circumstance. I don’t know you but I’m wishing you the best and much love,” another said.
Others tried to hype the woman up, urging her to take husband to court.
“Girl dump his ass and get a good lawyer. You’re too much of a baddie to deal with this,” one person wrote.
“Take him to the cleaners. Get that alimony,” another said.
Following the fallout Byron’s wife allegedly removed his last name from her Facebook profile.
According to a now deleted LinkedIn post, it appears as though Cabot only started at the company seven months ago.
“With over 20 years of experience in people and culture leadership, Kristin’s appointment reinforces our commitment to nurturing a collaborative and inclusive environment as we continue to scale,” the post said.
Astronomer is a software development company founded in 2018 and based out of New York.
Neither Byron, Cabot nor the company have publicly responded to the incident.
Coldplay are currently wrapping up the North American leg of their Music of the Spheres World Tour.
The band will head to England in August where they will begin a stretch of 10 shows at Wembley Stadium.
Astronomer has been contacted for comment.
