00:00These secret lovers got caught cheating in the worst possible way,
00:03on a huge stadium jumbotron at a massive Coldplay concert.
00:06Now, the mega-viral story just keeps getting worse,
00:09after the adulterers were identified as the CEO and head of HR of a major tech company.
00:14Either they're having an affair or they're just very shy.
00:17It all started innocently enough when the band Coldplay took the stage at Gillette Stadium in Boston.
00:23But it ended with Andy Byron and his date Kristen Cabot, uh, facing the music,
00:27when the band's camera crew began filming random fans in the crowd.
00:30It was a perfectly wholesome and joyful moment for each fan featured,
00:34that is, until the camera landed on one cuddled-up couple.
00:37Yeah, oh, look at these two. All right, come on, you okay?
00:41The pair was visibly shocked once they realized their faces had been broadcast across the stadium
00:46filled with 55,000 other concertgoers.
00:49The woman immediately covered her face and turned away from the camera,
00:52while the stunned man ducked down and exited the frame.
00:55Frontman Chris Martin then joked that either they're having an affair or they're just very shy.
01:00Oh my god!
01:02Holy s***.
01:04I hope we didn't do something bad. All right, okay.
01:06The clip instantly went viral due to the lover's horrified reactions
01:09and made it seem quite likely the two lovebirds were indeed caught having an affair.
01:13As the viral moments spread across the internet like wildfire,
01:17details about the not-so-discreet sweethearts emerged and confirmed what everyone had suspected.
01:22Coldplay threw a couple on the kiss cam. Turns out they were having an affair?
01:26It turned out that Chris Martin was right.
01:28The couple was identified as Andy Byron and Kristen Cabot,
01:31who were not only married to other people,
01:33they were both colleagues at a tech company called Astronomer.
01:36Two married co-workers embarking on a secret love affair is bad enough.
01:39But somehow, things kept getting worse for Byron and Cabot.
01:42You see, Andy and Kristen weren't just co-workers at Astronomer.
01:45Andy was the company's CEO, and Kristen was their HR chief.
01:49You know, the top executive of the department that enforces strict rules around unethical office
01:54romances? While many commenters felt like the embarrassment of being caught in 4K
01:58was punishment enough for Byron and Cabot. But the outrageous impact of their bizarre public
02:03scandal resulted in harsh consequences for the executives. CEO Byron was forced to resign
02:08from his role after failing to meet company standards, in an official statement from Astronomer.
02:13As for Chief People Officer Cabot, she's allegedly been placed on leave.
02:16Random kiss cams on Jumbotrons have been a thing at live sports events for ages,
02:21and awkward moments from fans in the stands caught on camera are nothing new. But at least Coldplay
02:25has taken note of the chaos they accidentally caused. They're now giving a warning with crowds
02:29before the kiss cam part of their performance.
02:32We'd like to say hello to some of you in the crowd. How we're going to do that is we're going
02:36to use our cameras and put some of you on the big screen.
02:39As for the random Coldplay fan who caught the scandalous viral moment on camera and shared
02:46it on social media, she had this to say when asked why she pushed publish on that video
02:51post. A part of me feels bad for turning these people's lives upside down, but play stupid games,
02:56win stupid prizes.
