Either they’re having an affair or they’re just very shy,” drawing laughs from the crowd, sparking an immediate viral response online.

A notable incident involving a cheating couple was exposed during a Coldplay concert, which is drawing significant attention and social media buzz. Astronomer CEO Andy Byron and the firm's Chief People Officer, Kristin Cabot, seem to be caught in an alleged affair during the concert. It started with the "kiss cam" focusing on a man and a woman sharing an intimate moment, which quickly revealed a steamy affair unbeknownst to many. As the "cheating couple" realised, Byron dropped his hold and Cabot hid her face, and it seemed like instant proof for the public, sparking a wave of reactions on social media. Many internet users criticised Byron for cheating and expressed sympathy for his spouse. In contrast, others commented on the awkwardness of such a scandal unfolding in a public setting at a highly popular event. Given their prominent professional roles, the incident also raised discussions about workplace trust and dynamics.
