The memes may never end…
We’ve all seen the memes, jokes and recreations, but this might be the best of the lot.
In a viral clip viewed by tens of millions of people, Astronomer CEO Andy Byron was spotted embracing his coworker, Kristin Cabot, the company’s chief people officer, at a Coldplay concert.
And at last night’s Phillies-Angels MLB match, the Phillies mascots got stuck into the action by recreating the now-famous scene, complete with wigs and all.
The scene prompted raucous laughter from the crowd, while another on the kiss cam held up a sign confirming ‘This IS my wife’.
This comes after it emerged that the wife of the Astronomer CEO has reportedly changed her last name on Facebook.
According to Page Six, Megan Kerrigan Byron removed her last name from her Facebook and shortly after deleted her entire account following the viral cheating allegations.
When the pair realised they were ‘caught’ on the big screen, they quickly ducked out of frame, hiding their faces from the camera’s view.
Byron’s wife, Megan, deleted her Facebook page after her account quickly flooded with comments about the alleged affair, per Page Six.
It also appears that CEO Byron has deleted his LinkedIn profile, as the URL now leads to an error message.
Byron has been at the tech company since July 2023, while Cabot joined in November 2024.
It appeared that Astronomer CEO Byron issued a statement regarding the awkward moment, however the firm has deemed the statement fake.
It also appears that CEO Byron has deleted his LinkedIn profile, as the URL now leads to an error message. Astronomer is a private data infrastructure startup with a valuation exceeding $1 billion.
In a post announcing Cabot’s hiring, Byron praised the CPO for her “exceptional leadership and deep expertise,” as well as her “passion for fostering diverse, collaborative workplaces.”
