The head of Astronomer, a tech company situated in New York, stepped down on Saturday after questions arose about a scene captured during a Coldplay concert in Massachusetts this week.
A video that went viral captured a couple rapidly ducking out of sight when they appeared on the large screen at the Coldplay concert held on Wednesday at Gillette Stadium.
Coldplay frontman Chris Martin teased the two after witnessing their reaction, saying: “Either they’re having an affair or they’re really shy.”
Not long after, rumors began to circulate, connecting the couple to the tech company.
Astronomer initially responded to the chatter on Friday through a post on social media platform X, announcing that their CEO, Andy Byron, was on leave as they commenced an inquiry into the matter.
On Saturday, the company released a follow-up statement announcing that Andy Byron had tendered his resignation and the Board of Directors had accepted.
“Before this week, we were known as a pioneer in the DataOps space, helping data teams power everything from modern analytics to production AI. While awareness of our company may have changed overnight, our product and our work for our customers have not. We’re continuing to do what we do best: helping our customers with their toughest data and AI problems.”
