Astronomer CEO caught cuddling on concert Jumbotron with HR head steps down

Astronomer CEO Andy Byron, who was caught by a Coldplay concert Jumbotron cozying up with his company’s head of human resources, has resigned following the incident, according to the company.

“As stated previously, Astronomer is committed to the values and culture that have guided us since our founding,” the company wrote in a statement Saturday to Fox News. “Our leaders are expected to set the standard in both conduct and accountability, and recently, that standard was not met.”

Astronomer said Byron tendered his resignation, and the board of directors accepted.

The unspecified relationship between Byron and Chief People Officer Kristin Cabot was revealed to the nation when they were spotted by the concert’s “Kiss Cam.”

Cabot briskly turned and covered her face, while Byron awkwardly ducked behind a stadium seat, catching Coldplay lead singer Chris Martin’s gaze.

“Oh, look at these two,” Martin joked to the crowd. “All right, c’mon, you’re Ok. Oh, what? Either they’re having an affair or they’re just very shy.”
