Coldplay's Chris Martin pokes fun at affair comment in viral concert video

He never meant to cause trouble.

During his Massachusetts concert this week, Coldplay frontman Chris Martin couldn’t resist making a lighthearted remark after inadvertently revealing a tech executive’s “affair” with a colleague on a Jumbotron.

Following the viral spread of the clip featuring the two audience members on Thursday, online sleuths swiftly recognized the affectionate pair as Andy Byron, CEO of Astronomer, and Kristin Cabot, the company’s head of human resources.

As the repercussions from the incident continue to emerge, the “Sparks” singer quickly took the opportunity to jest about another couple attending the show at Foxborough’s Gillette Stadium.

In a new clip on social media, the 48-year-old musician mocked his own gaffe later on in the show once the Jumbotron showed another couple at the concert.

“Ok, listen, are you two a couple? Are you two a legitimate couple?” he quipped, according to the fan-recorded video on X.

“Do you understand English? Hablas Español? Ok, I’m just going to risk it,” Martin added.

The funny moment happened moments after the co-workers were mistakenly caught on an impromptu kiss cam as part of “The Jumbotron Song” — which leads the band into their 2005 hit “Fix You.”

Seconds after realizing the pair were on the big screen, the frazzled CEO was seen quickly ducking out of frame, with a mortified Cabot turning away from the crowd of 55,000 concertgoers at Gillette Stadium.

At first, Martin thought the camera had captured a sweet moment, saying, “Look at these two.”

But following their bizarre reaction to being on camera, Martin quickly became confused.

“Oh, what?” the “Clocks” singer can be heard saying on stage. “Either they’re having an affair or they’re just very shy.”

“Holy sh-t. I hope we didn’t do something bad,” he said, according to additional footage taken right after.

Following the ordeal, it emerged that Byron is married to Megan Kerrigan Byron, while Cabot recently divorced her husband, Kenneth Thornby.

In a further twist to the drama, the tech tycoon’s wife removed her married name from her Facebook page Thursday.

Kerrigan deleted her Facebook page, but screenshots show she removed her married name — Byron — from it earlier in the day. She also deleted her Instagram account.
