Megan Kerrigan Byron Biography – Megan Kerrigan Byron Wiki
Megan Kerrigan Byron is married to Andy Byron, the CEO of Astronomer. The tech executive was caught in a scandal when a “fling” with a colleague was revealed on a jumbotron during a Coldplay concert. At the event held at Gillette Stadium in Foxborough, Massachusetts, on July 16, 2025, both Byron and his HR chief, Kristin Cabot, attempted to cover their faces when they were shown in a cozy moment on the big screen.
“Oh, what?” exclaimed lead singer Chris Martin on stage, clearly puzzled, as captured in a TikTok video shared by The New York Post. “Either they’re having an affair or they’re just very shy.”
Megan Kerrigan Byron is notably the associate director of Lower School and oversees The Hope Graham Program (HGP) admissions at Bancroft School located in Worcester, MA.

HERE ARE MORE DETAILS ABOUT COLDPLAY – NETIZENS’ COMMENTS AND WHAT HAPPENED (The Internet can be so unforgiving, SAVAGE COMMENTS BELOW)
‘I would like to thank Coldplay for bringing the nation together. For a day, you fixed us,’ wrote another, while a third posted an image of Fred and Wilma Flinstone in a similar pose to the one Byron and Cabot were caught in on the kiss cam.
‘Coldplay’s Cameraman is a gem!’ giggled an X user over a photo of a cameraman with Leonardo DiCaprio’s cackling face in Django Unchained.
‘Next Board Meeting at Astronomer,’ wrote another, over a still of Jonah Hill presenting a professional chart to Brad Pitt in Moneyball – only with the chart covered up by a grab of Byron with his arm around Cabot.
‘Its the most rock n roll thing Coldplays ever done,’ marveled one observer as another chortled: ‘I bet Coldplay will create a new song in honor of the couple in question.’
‘Who did it better?’ vamped an Instagram user, comparing Byron holding Cabot to Jack (Leonardo DiCaprio) holding Rose (Kate Winslet) from behind in the ‘I’m flying!’ scene from Titanic.
One X user posted a picture of Martin at the piano with the quip: ‘a CEO hates to see this man coming.’
The company they work for provides generative AI software to a number of major companies including Uber, Ford and LinkedIn.

The clip went instantly viral as fans went wild over at the uncomfortable moment, thanking Coldplay for ‘bringing the whole internet together for one day’
Byron heaped praise on Cabot in a November 2024 post about her appointment to the firm.
‘Kristin’s exceptional leadership and deep expertise in talent management, employee engagement, and scaling people strategies will be critical as we continue our rapid trajectory,’ he said.
‘She is a proven leader at multiple growth-stage companies and her passion for fostering diverse, collaborative workplaces makes her a perfect fit for Astronomer.’
Byron became CEO in 2023, and the startup rapidly grew under his tenure including a reported 292% growth in revenue for its ‘Astro’ platform that year.
The startup has been valued at over $1 billion, and last week Byron appeared on New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) TV to celebrate the company.
Astronomer raised $93 million in its Series D round of financing, which Byron described as ‘a huge opportunity’ and ‘very exciting’ for the firm.
The concert where the pair were apparently caught out was part of Coldplay’s ongoing Music Of The Spheres World Tour.
They will next play Maddison, Nashville and Miami before heading back to the UK for a string of dates in August.
