Kristin Cabot, the Human Resources director caught on kiss cam at Coldplay concert, faces up to scandal
The fallout continues for tech company Astronomer after a viral kiss cam moment exposed an office affair at a Coldplay concert in Boston.
Just days after CEO Andy Byron resigned from his position, the company has now confirmed that Kristin Cabot—the firm’s head of human resources—has also stepped down. The move comes after the pair, who are both married to other people, were filmed cuddling and getting cozy on camera during the concert. The video shows Byron ducking down in embarrassment and Cabot covering her face once they realized they were being broadcast to the crowd.
Kristin Gabot resigns from Astronomer over Coldplay affair
The clip has since gone viral, sparking headlines around the world—and serious consequences back at work. Astronomer enforces a strict internal policy prohibiting employee relationships unless they’re made public to the company. With the now-public affair still making waves, a spokesperson confirmed to CNBC: “Kristin Cabot is no longer employed at Astronomer. She resigned.” Both her and Byron’s names have also been scrubbed from the company’s website.
Byron marriage breaks down
Meanwhile, Byron’s wife Megan has taken quiet but decisive steps to distance herself from the scandal. According to the Daily Mail, she has removed “Byron” from her name on social media—now going by Megan Kerrigan—and has since deactivated her Facebook profile altogether. She has reportedly moved out of the couple’s home in Northborough, Massachusetts, relocating to a multimillion-dollar coastal estate in Kennebunk, Maine.
The seaside mansion, valued at over $2 million, had previously served as a vacation home for the couple. Megan, a school principal who has remained silent about the affair, is said to be staying there to escape the media glare. As of now, the pair remain legally married.
