Who was Andy Byron with at the Coldplay concert?
During the band’s show at Boston’s Gillette Stadium on Tuesday night (July 15), part of their Music of the Spheres World Tour, the camera projected a man, Andy Byron, with his arm around a woman’s waist on one of the big screens showing the gig.
After trying to hide from the camera, Coldplay frontman Chris Martin quipped: “Oh look at these two! Oh what? Either they’re having an affair, or they’re just very shy.”
Either they’re having an affair, or they’re just very shy.
Footage that’s gone viral on social media and video-sharing platforms shows 50-year-old Andy Byron, CEO of private data infrastructure and operations company Astronomer, with his arm around the waist of his co-worker Kristin Cabot. He quickly let go of Kristin and crouched down, while she covered her face with her hands.
Per the Daily Mail, Andy appeared to remark: “[Bleep]ing hell, it’s me.” Chief people officer Kristin the seemed to say: “This is awkward.”
The original TikTok, posted by another concertgoer, has amassed almost 50 million views and five million likes.
