A U.S.-based tech company, Astronomer, has been rocked by scandal after a viral video taken at a Coldplay concert showed two of its top executives—CEO Andy Byron and Chief People Officer Kristin Cabot—sharing an intimate moment on the venue’s jumbo screen. The clip, quickly turned into memes and widely shared online, prompted the company to launch an internal investigation.
Andy Byron stepped down last week, and now Kristin Cabot has also resigned, the company confirmed in a statement to the BBC. While the BBC has not been able to independently verify the identities of those in the video, U.S. media outlets have named them. The moment they were spotted on the screen, the pair quickly ducked, fueling further online speculation. The incident has triggered discussions about workplace relationships, professionalism, and public scrutiny in the tech world.
