Viral social media account pretending to be Coldplay concert CEO's daughter exposed as fake
Sky News AU5 days ago
A French model has denied she is the daughter of former Astronomer CEO after a viral TikTok account appearing to use videos of her for content.
The account, @marinagirll, appeared two days ago, shortly after the infamous Coldplay kiss cam moment which caught former Astronomer CEO Andy Bryon hugging the company's head of HR Kristin Cabot.
The account captioned one viral video, 'Reconnecting with life after your dad's affair makes national news' with the woman tying her hair up whilst standing at an outside fire pit, which angered many users on TikTok.
One commentor said 'Wow imagines using your dad's affair to get famous. You're a nobody lol. Check in on your mom maybe... ?"
TikToker Lizthemillienial posted a video saying the video was not real.
A photo posted by his wife to Facebook shows Mr Bryon with his two sons, but there were no posts or photos that prove that he has a daughter.
The videos on the Marina Bryon account were allegedly taken from the social media of a French model and singer-songwriter, Julie Tuzet.
Miss Tuzet, who lives in Paris, posted to TikTok that she is not the CEO's daughter.
She said, 'Guys, I am not the CEO's daughter. You probably saw this video of me at a fireplace reconnecting with nature. It's just someone who stole my videos and content from TikTok to create this fake news, and it's going viral.
The TikTok account comes after Mr Byron resigned as CEO of Astronomer, an AI tech firm based in New York.
The firm posted a statement to X over the weekend stating that they were investigating the video after the incident at Coldplay's Boston concert went viral.
It is unclear whether or not Ms Cabot will be forced to resign, but she currently remains in post whilst the investigation is ongoing.
