The Coldplay concert controversy continues to simmer as new allegations surface against the Astronomer CEO. A man who claimed to be a senior of Andy Byron during his teenage years accused him of past bullying and added that he “still hasn’t learned his lesson” after Byron and Chief People Officer Kristin Cabot were spotted together on the stadium’s “kiss cam.“In a post on X, a man named Jonathan Bowen claimed that he knew that Byron would be a competitor but also knew he’d be a complete sociopath, and “it turns out I was right.”“You’re not going to believe this shit! When I was a teenager living in Hanover, Massachusetts, I got into a couple of fights with a kid a bit younger than me but slightly bigger, named Andy Byron. He thought he was tough, so I had to put him in his place. I beat him up once or twice, but later, he and another buddy from Laurie Lane—I was the fuckin’ new guy—jumped me, and I lost that fight,” Bowen said in a post. “Turns out, he’s the same guy who was caught cheating on his wife at the Coldplay concert! The guy clearly hasn’t learned his lesson. When I knew him, I thought he’d be a competitor, he’s now the CEO of Astronomy, but I also knew he’d be a complete sociopath, and it turns out I was right,” he added.
It all started with one “kiss cam” video when on July 16 at a Coldplay concert, Byron and Cabot were caught. As the jumbotron focused on them, Byron held Cabot from behind as both smiled awkwardly. The moment became even more charged when Coldplay frontman Chris Martin joked, “Either they’re having an affair or they’re very shy.” That single comment turned an awkward moment into a fullblown internet scandal.A scandalous clip from the Coldplay concert has ignited a full-blown internet frenzy, amassing over 34 million views across TikTok, Twitter, and Reddit. Dubbed “ColdplayGate,” the viral video has sparked a wave of backlash, with viewers criticizing the pair at the center of the controversy for their perceived impropriety. The online reaction has been swift and merciless—memes, Coldplay lyric puns, and sarcastic commentary have flooded social media, particularly on LinkedIn, where users have taken aim at Andy Byron with biting humor and mockery.
Did Brayon’s wife drops her surname?
Amid the buzz, a user claimed that Andy’s wife has removed ‘Byron’ from her surname on her Facebook account. Many netizens tried to support Megan Kerrigan, who is also the mother of their two kids, in an overwhelming response during the difficult times. The user revealed, “Andy Byron‘s wife has now dropped her married name on Facebook and left comments open on her Facebook! What a class act! Go Megan Get that divorce lawyer and get the money,” Megan deleted her social media pages soon after many comments started to flood her account, but the screenshots show that she removed her marital name.
