Tech company Astronomer has confirmed CEO Andy Byron’s resignation following a viral video of him and Chief People Officer Kristin Cabot embracing at a Coldplay concert — fueling rumors of an affair. The pair had been placed on leave during an internal investigation. The video, which showed the two ducking away after landing on the Kiss Cam, triggered public backlash and a flurry of memes. Astronomer later reiterated its commitment to workplace conduct and accountability, adding that cofounder Pete DeJoy is now serving as interim CEO.

The company declined to comment on Cabot’s current status. Online, reactions ranged from amused to critical, with many questioning whether cheating should cost someone their job. A fake apology attributed to Byron also circulated before being debunked. The fallout has left Astronomer navigating PR damage — and the internet watching every step.
