The Coldplay kiss cam scandal has sent shockwaves around the world - and brought the two families of the CEO and the HR chief involved in the scandal into the spotlight

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.

The employer of a CEO reportedly seen in a viral "kiss cam" moment at a recent Coldplay concert says it is launching an investigation into the incident. Astronomer, a New York City-based data company, said in a statement Friday that a "formal investigation" has been launched by its board of directors.
