Andy Byron, CEO of Astronomer, went viral on July 17 during a Coldplay concert, when he was seen getting cosy with with HR head Kristin Cabot on a kiss cam, raising allegations of cheating on his wife. A video of the both draped in each others arms and getting shocked after seeing themselves on the kiss cam took the social media by storm.

Byron is married to Megan Kerrigan Byron, and the couple resides in New York. His cosy appearance with Kristin Cabot at the Coldplay concert raised questions whether he’s having an extramarital affair.

Coldplay’s lead singer even commented as they appeared to pull back for each other and tried to hide their faces — “Oh look at these two… either they’re having an affair or they’re very shy.”

Megan Kerrigan Byron a well-known teacher and mother of two, dropped “Byron” from her surname from different social media profiles. According to a Page Six report, she later deleted her Facebook profile that contained several family photos.

Kerrigan’s action has fuelled rumours that Andy Byron may possibly get divorced from his wife, following the scandal. Neither of them have issued a statement yet.

If Andy Byron and Megan Kerrigan really divorce, the Astronomer CEO may have to pay a large amount of alimony to his wife. While his net worth is not disclosed, it can be estimated that Andy Byron earns a fair amount of money from his company, which is valued at well above $1 billion.

According to a report by The Economic Times, the Astronomer CEO is one of the highest-paid executives of the Ohio state.
