Andy Byron Kristin Cabot

Kristin Cabot has resigned from her head of HR position at Astronomer in the wake of the Coldplay cheating scandal, TMZ has learned.

A rep for Astronomer tells TMZ, "Kristin Cabot is no longer with Astronomer -- she’s resigned."

Kristin’s resignation comes right after her lover Andy Byron quit as Astronomer’s CEO on Saturday -- both dropping like flies after they were caught getting way too cozy at a Coldplay concert, sparking an internal investigation into workplace conduct.

Morgan Wallen's not condoning cheating on your significant other ... but, he says his show should be a safe place to do it -- telling his audience he's not gonna snitch like Coldplay!

The country star held a show in Glendale, Arizona Friday night ... and, he asked if anyone brought their "side chick" to his show.

A few people scream ... and, he tells them he thinks they're safe -- though he doesn't guarantee anything.

6:03 PM PT -- Astronomer posted to their X account that an interim CEO has been assigned amid Andy Byron's leave.

Astronomer CEO Andy Byron’s viral canoodling is crashing harder than a bad launch -- he and HR head Kristin Cabot have reportedly been suspended!

Yup, that’s right -- after their alleged affair got exposed with a very cozy concert hug at Coldplay this week, the duo’s now benched at home while a formal investigation into their relationship kicks off, according to Axios.

Of course, it goes without saying -- this is extra scandalous since Kristin’s the HEAD OF HR … you know, the one who’s supposed to know all the dos and don’ts of workplace romances.

Astronomer CEO Andy Byron and the company's HR head Kristin Cabot are in hot water after they were caught cuddling at Coldplay's concert earlier this week ... because the company's launching an investigation into their relationship.

The company announced the investigation Friday morning ... telling its followers, and more importantly its investors, Astronomer is looking into the matter and "will have additional details to share very shortly."

Astronomer also used the opportunity to clear the air ... announcing a woman identified as a VP in the human resources department was not at the concert, despite reports ... and Byron has not actually released a statement yet.

The couple supposedly caught cheating at a recent Coldplay concert are inspiring a lot of people in their alone time ... 'cause "cheating" porn interest is blowing up on Pornhub.

We've got some internal data from the good people at one of the country's premier porn sites ... and, they tell us they're seeing a massive spike in searches for the keywords "cheating" and "affair."

Check out this graph ... search traffic grew as erect as the people looking up the videos -- up more than 19% from the previous day. Worth noting ... interest sat at around just 2% for much of the weeks leading up to the Coldplay catastrophe -- but, it's really exploded all over the site in recent days.

Alex Cora had himself an All-Star break he'll remember for the foreseeable future ... 'cause the Red Sox manager was in attendance for the Coldplay concert on Wednesday in Boston -- the same show where an alleged affair was put on display for the world to see!

Cora met with media members on Friday just ahead of his team's series opener against the Chicago Cubs, and he was asked how he enjoyed his past few off days.

He cracked a wry smile and said, "It was good," before he revealed, "I was actually in the Wednesday [Coldplay] concert."

Coldplay’s Chris Martin might’ve sung about 'Fixing' love, but it looks like he's given up on trusting it -- 'cause he cheekily grilled another couple on whether they were the real deal ... right after busting an alleged affair at a Boston concert this week.

Catch the hilarious clip -- Chris went full detective mode, interrogating the next couple about their relationship status after the kiss-cam locked onto them ... and the moment got even funnier when it looked like the pair either didn’t hear him or just had no clue what was happening!

The couple was seen giggling and awkwardly nodding, with Chris even throwing in some Spanish just in case. But it turns out, they are a real couple -- just looked like they were a bit flustered by all the eyes on them!

New twist in the viral Coldplay concert scandal -- the company behind the CEO busted in an alleged affair says a supposed statement from Andy Byron that's gone viral is totally fake.

Byron’s company, Astronomer tells TMZ the statement floating around on social media -- purportedly written by Andy himself to address the alleged affair -- is “not a real statement.”

The faux statement was posted late Thursday after the now-infamous video went viral, showing CEO Andy hugging Astronomer's HR chief Kristin Cabot during Wednesday night's Coldplay concert in Boston.

The alleged couple ended up on the big screen, and both of them immediately tried to hide when they realized they were on full display.

It sure seems like everyone is talking about the viral Coldplay concert moment when the kiss-cam seemingly exposed a CEO's alleged affair with his staffer -- and now fans can rock hilarious merch ... thanks to Etsy.

The popular online marketplace was flooded with items shortly after Astronomer CEO Andy Byron was allegedly caught canoodling on camera with his human resources chief, Kristin Cabot, at Coldplay's Boston concert Wednesday night.

Spreading through social media like the "Speed of Sound" ... their horrified reaction made national headlines -- so of course, it was just a matter of time before someone cashed in on the moment.

The Coldplay fan behind the viral kiss cam moment that seemingly exposed a CEO's alleged affair with his staffer is defending posting the video with a blunt lesson -- "Play stupid games ... win stupid prizes!"

New Jersey resident Grace Springer is speaking out about her wild video -- which has amassed more than 30 million views -- telling The Sun she never expected her footage to become so popular but hopes it can be a learning moment for those involved.

She explains ... "A part of me feels bad for turning these people’s lives upside down, but, play stupid games… win stupid prizes."

Andy Byron became a familiar name to more than just the tech industry Thursday, after he was caught embracing Kristin Cabot on camera during a Coldplay concert in Boston Wednesday night.

And the story got deeper, as the tech figure wiped his social media presence the day after videos featuring his quick exit from the frame went viral.

We're going to take a look at Byron's background ... and check out what exactly happened at the band's concert.

Byron serves as the CEO of Astronomer, a data operations platform that helps businesses streamline their data workflows.

The company achieved what's described as "unicorn" status ... meaning it received a valuation of over $1 billion, in 2022, according to Men's Journal.

Byron's LinkedIn page -- which has since been either deleted or set to private -- listed his places of employment as Fuze, Cybereason and BMC Software.

Prior to starting at Astronomer, where Cabot served as its Chief People Officer, he had most recently worked at a company called Lacework, located in Mountain View, California.

Byron was apparently excited about Cabot's hiring, as he spoke highly of her in a press release announcing she'd joined Astronomer, which was shared on the company's official website in November 2024.

He singled out his coworker's "exceptional leadership and deep expertise in talent management" as her two of her strong points, and described her as "a proven leader."

Cabot also issued a statement of her own at the time, and expressed she wanted to focus on "people strategy versus traditional human resources."

She added she'd been "energized in my conversations with Andy" while signing on to the company.

Byron and Cabot were apparently caught on kiss-cam embracing in front of thousands of people during Coldplay's show in Boston Wednesday night.

After the two were caught, Byron quickly ducked out of the camera's sight ... while Cabot covered her face and turned around, keeping her back to the cam.

The pair's reaction was quickly noticed by Chris Martin, who immediately joked the two were either "having an affair or they’re just very shy."

The "Viva La Vida" singer added "I hope we didn’t do something bad" in an apparent reference to the pair's quick shyness in front of the camera.

Although the tech CEO appeared to have been caught off guard by his appearance on camera, his wife, Megan Kerrigan Byron, apparently was even more surprised, according to Newsweek.

Following the publicization of her husband's alleged behavior, her Facebook account was flooded with messages of support, as well as speculation regarding the state of her marriage.

Byron's wife, whose Facebook page reportedly featured photos featuring the couple's children, dropped his last name from her profile on Thursday.
