Coldplay accidentally exposes tech CEO's alleged affair on concert Jumbotron
Andy Byron, CEO of data orchestration platform Astronomer, and the company's chief human resources officer, Kristin Cabot, were shown on the Jumbotron canoodling at Gillette Stadium in Foxborough, Mass. during the English rock band's concert on Wednesday, July 16. Both of them are reportedly married to other people.
A clip from the concert, shared to TikTok by @instaagrace, catches Byron embracing Cabot until they notice the camera spotlighting them. The two then immediately recoil, with Byron ducking down out of frame while Cabot covers her face and turns the other direction.
'Either they're having an affair or they're just very shy,' Coldplay frontman Chris Martin quipped onstage during the awkward moment.
The video has received more than 3 million likes since it was posted on Wednesday, July 16, and has been widely reshared across other social media platforms.
Byron has served as CEO of New York-based Astronomer, which has offices in San Jose and San Francisco, since 2023. He has two children with his wife, educator Megan Kerrigan Byron, who reportedly removed her husband's last name from her Facebook profile before deleting her account altogether following the incident.
Cabot, who is married to Ken Thornby, president of trucking company Middie Back Inc, joined the company at the end of last year.
Independent film distributor Neon memeified the moment to promote Palo Alto native Dave Franco and his wife Alison Brie's upcoming body horror film 'Together,' which has been embroiled in controversy of its own since June.
'The perfect date night movie,' Neon shared to X, along with a photo of Byron and Cabot wrapped in each other's arms before noticing that they were on the Jumbotron.
Others in the comment section of the original TikTok video pointed out other members of the Astronomer team in the background, who seemed to already be aware of the affair.
Meanwhile, Martin has attracted his share of public scrutiny regarding his recent split from ' Materialists ' actor Dakota Johnson. The two had been dating for nearly eight years.
Wednesday's concert was the second of Coldplay's two back-to-back nights at Gillette Stadium, as part of its 'Music of the Spheres' tour. The band previously performed at Stanford Stadium for two sold-out shows on May 31 and June 1.

Wordle hints today for #1,492: Clues and answer for Sunday, July 20
Hey, there! We hope you're having a spectacular weekend. You deserve it. Surely, keeping your Wordle streak intact will help with that. Here's our daily Wordle guide with some hints and the answer for Sunday's puzzle (#1,492). It may be that you're a Wordle newcomer and you're not completely sure how to play the game. We're here to help with that too. What is Wordle? Wordle is a deceptively simple daily word game that first emerged in 2021. There is one five-letter word to deduce every day by process of elimination. The daily word is the same for everyone. Wordle blew up in popularity in late 2021 after creator Josh Wardle made it easy for players to share an emoji-based grid with their friends and followers that detailed how they fared each day. The game's success spurred dozens of clones across a swathe of categories and formats. The New York Times purchased Wordle in early 2022 for an undisclosed sum. The publication said that players collectively played Wordle 5.3 billion times in 2024. So, it's little surprise that Wordle is one of the best online games and puzzles you can play daily. How to play Wordle To start playing Wordle, you simply need to enter one five-letter word. The game will tell you how close you are to that day's secret word by highlighting letters that are in the correct position in green. Letters that appear in the word but aren't in the right spot will be highlighted in yellow. If you guess any letters that are not in the secret word, the game will gray those out on the virtual keyboard. However, you can still use those letters in subsequent guesses. You'll only have six guesses to find each day's word, though you still can use grayed-out letters to help narrow things down. It's also worth remembering that letters can appear in the secret word more than once. Wordle is free to play on the NYT's website and apps, as well as on Meta Quest headsets and Discord. The game refreshes at midnight local time. If you log into a New York Times account, you can track your stats, including the all-important win streak. How to play Wordle more than once a day If you have a NYT subscription that includes full access to the publication's games, you don't have to stop after a single round of Wordle. You'll have access to an archive of more than 1,400 previous Wordle games. So if you're a relative newcomer, you'll be able to go back and catch up on previous editions. In addition, paid NYT Games members have access to a tool called the Wordle Bot. This can tell you how well you performed at each day's game. Previous Wordle answers Before today's Wordle hints, here are the answers to recent puzzles that you may have missed: Yesterday's Wordle answer for Saturday, July 19 — SWORD Friday, July 18 — LORIS Thursday, July 17 — MODAL Wednesday, July 16 — NERVY Tuesday, July 15 — FOIST Today's Wordle hints explained Every day, we'll try to make Wordle a little easier for you. First, we'll offer a hint that describes the meaning of the word or how it might be used in a phrase or sentence. We'll also tell you if there are any double (or even triple) letters in the word. In case you still haven't quite figured it out by that point, we'll then provide the first letter of the word. Those who are still stumped after that can continue on to find out the answer for today's Wordle. This should go without saying, but make sure to scroll slowly. Spoilers are ahead. Today's Wordle help Here is a hint for today's Wordle answer: Like a crossword puzzle square that remains empty. Also, a firearm cartridge that does not shoot a projectile. Are there any double letters in today's Wordle? There are no repeated letters in today's Wordle answer. What's the first letter of today's Wordle? The first letter of today's Wordle answer is B. The Wordle answer today This is your final warning before we reveal today's Wordle answer. No take-backs. Don't blame us if you happen to scroll too far and accidentally spoil the game for yourself. What is today's Wordle? Today's Wordle answer is... BLANK Not to worry if you didn't figure out today's Wordle word. If you made it this far down the page, hopefully you at least kept your streak going. And, hey: there's always another game tomorrow.
