Coldplay concert footage showed the Astronomer CEO hugging Kristin Cabot, his company's chief people officer, from behind on Wednesday at Gillette Stadium in Foxborough, Massachusetts. Astronomer is a private data infrastructure startup that achieved "unicorn" status in 2022 with a $1 billion or more valuation.

"Cofounder and Chief Product Officer Pete DeJoy is currently serving as interim CEO given Andy Byron has been placed on leave," a statement from the company read. The decision came after Byron was spotted hugging a woman, later identified as Kristin Cabot.

Astronomer CEO Andy Byron and HR chief Kristin Cabot were filmed sharing intimate moments before being caught on kiss-cam at a Coldplay concert. Following the incident, the company has launched an internal investigation.
