'Oh shit, I hope we didn't do something bad,' quipped Chris Martin as a couple attempted to avoid being captured by the jumbotron during Coldplay's concert in Foxborough, USA, on 15 July, part of their Music Of The Spheres World Tour.
In the now viral video circulating on social media, the man and woman were caught off guard when they appeared on screen in a close embrace, they quickly broke apart, with the woman covering her face and turning her back. The man, in turn, crouched behind a glass railing in an attempt to hide sparking cheating allegations.
'Oh, look at these two ...Either they're having an affair or just really shy,' joked the frontman.
As the video made the rounds on social media, it was discovered that the man is a tech CEO and the woman is the company's Chief People Officer. Both of them are reportedly married.
X users had a field day with many joking about the awkward situation.
'Sad way for his wife to find out that he liked Coldplay,' wrote one user.
'Cold play by Coldplay at a Coldplay concert,' joked another.
'They acted as though they were doing something wrong, and that's why it went viral. If they stayed still and did nothing, I'm pretty sure this wouldn't be trending this much,' said another.
'Well, the HR team is gonna be having some very difficult conversations on Friday, wrote another.
'Having your workplace affair exposed at a Coldplay concert, by the lead singer himself, is just a wild series of events,' wrote another.
Meanwhile, the company told TMZ that a statement on social media purportedly written by him to address the alleged affair 'is not a real statement.'
