What began as a fun night at a Coldplay concert in Boston quickly turned into viral chaos after a fan caught a suspiciously intimate moment on camera. Grace Springer, 28, was filming the show when the kiss cam landed on a couple who reacted with sudden discomfort—prompting Coldplay’s Chris Martin to joke, “Either they’re having an affair, or they’re very shy.” The audience laughed, but soon social media did its homework.

Within hours of posting the video to TikTok, viewers identified the couple as Andy Byron, CEO of Astronomer, and Kristin Cabot, the company’s Chief People Officer. The problem? They were both married—but not to each other. The video exploded online, surpassing 68 million views. Springer, stunned by the response, told reporters, “A part of me feels bad… but play stupid games, win stupid prizes.”

As backlash grew, details of Byron and Cabot’s relationship history emerged. Byron’s wife, Megan, quickly removed his last name from social media and later deleted her accounts altogether. Meanwhile, users revisited Byron’s past leadership controversies, including claims of toxic behavior at a former company. Springer shared updates from her end too—screenshots of emails, viral view counts, and messages from strangers thanking her for the “unexpected dose of justice.”

Now, with Byron’s LinkedIn gone and Cabot under scrutiny, the internet shows no sign of forgetting. While some worry about the fallout for their families, others feel the exposure was deserved. “Their spouses should be thanking the tabloids,” one user wrote. For Springer, what started as a fun night out turned into a viral storm—and a sharp reminder that in the age of social media, nothing stays secret for long.
