Tech company Astronomer said its board launched an investigation after CEO Andy Byron was seen embracing a coworker at a Coldplay concert.

Pete DeJoy stepped into the role of interim CEO after Andy Byron resigned following the circulation of the viral moment at a Coldplay concert last week.

The wife of former Astronomer CEO Andy Byron is reportedly holed up in a $2.4 million Maine mansion since her husband was caught on camera at a Coldplay concert cozying up with his HR chief.

Former Astronomer CEO Andy Byron's 'Kiss Cam' incident with HR Head Kristin Cabot at a Coldplay concert has exploded online, prompting a wave of fake apologies. Astronomer has confirmed that statements attributed to Byron and even Coldplay are hoaxes.

Astronomer's new CEO is speaking out about the Coldplay concert kiss cam controversy, admitting the viral video has raised brand awareness for the tech firm.

Astronomer's interim CEO, Pete DeJoy, said in an update that the startup had "received a level of media attention that few companies" ever encounter.

In July 2025, following a viral incident at a Coldplay concert involving Andy Byron, then the CEO of tech company Astronomer ( archived ), an alleged video statement made by his wife, Megan Kerrigan Byron, began circulating widely on social media.

Let’s face it: If now-former Astronomer CEO Andy Byron and Chief People Officer Kristin Cabot hadn’t been caught canoodling on camera at a Coldplay concert, it’s unlikely DeJoy would have wound up being named the new CEO, at the company he co-founded a decade ago.

Brooklynite Pete DeJoy has taken the reins at Astronomer after its disgraced boss Andy Byron was caught on the kiss cam cozying up with the head of HR.
