Astronomer CEO's foul-mouthed reaction to Coldplay concert kiss cam affair exposed
Viral images of Astronomer CEO Andy Byron and his company's Chief People Officer Kristin Cabot seen in an embrace during a kiss cam have left many wondering what the chief exec said during the embarrassing moment.
The pair was caught on the Jumbotron at a Coldplay concert before they fled and cheating allegations ignited online.
Upon noticing that they were on full display at the concert, Byron immediately ducked out of view, while Cabot spun round before putting her face in her palms.

Before their realisation, it appeared the CEO had his arms around Kristin's waist, in a video posted to TikTok, with both enjoying the concert's music.
Chris Martin, Coldplay's lead singer, accidentally shone the light on the two of them, with the singer stating: "Oh look at these two," the Mirror reported.
After laughter erupted throughout the stadium, he added: "Oh what... either they're having an affair or they're very shy."
Byron appeared to say "f****** hell, it's me" before ducking out of the camera's view.
Following the incident, a 'fake statement' swirled across the internet, one that Astronomer has shot down as bogus.
The 'fake statement' read: "I want to acknowledge the moment that's been circulating online, and the disappointment it's caused.
"What was supposed to be a night of music and joy turned into a deeply personal mistake play-out out on a very public stage. I want to sincerely apologize to my wife, my family, and my team at Astronomer. You deserve better from me as a partner, as a father, and as a leader.
"This is not who I want to be or how I want to represent the company I helped build.
"I'm taking time to reflect, take accountability, and figure out the next steps, personally and professionally. I ask for privacy as I navigate that process.
"I also want to express how troubling it is that what should have been a private moment became public without my consent.
"I respect artists and entertainers, but I hope we can all think more deeply about the impact of turning someone else's life into a spectacle.
"As a friend once sang: 'Lights will guide you home, and ignite your bones, and I will try to fix you."
