A video featuring Astronomer's CEO Andy Byron cozying up with his HR chief Kristin Cabot is spreading like wildfire on social media. The footage is reportedly from a recent Coldplay concert at Boston's Gillette Stadium.
During Coldplay's concert on Wednesday night, the infamous 'kiss cam' zoomed in on the couple, capturing Byron and Cabot close together. As soon as they realized they were on screen, Byron swiftly attempted to hide, while Cabot shielded her face with her hands. Realizing the awkwardness of the moment, singer Chris Martin quipped, 'Oh...either they're having an affair or they're very shy.'

Some labeled it 'the internet's biggest scandal,' while others criticized the folly of Byron and Cabot's public display of affection.
One user noted, 'If you're having an affair, why go to a public concert?'
