Millions of people have viewed clips of a couple appearing to duck for cover after they were featured cuddling on the big screen at a Coldplay concert, prompting lead singer Chris Martin to speculate that they may be having an affair.
During Wednesday night’s Coldplay concert in Massachusetts at Gillette Stadium, a couple holding each other was caught on the jumbotron during the kiss cam segment of the night. As soon as the couple realized they were on camera, they scrambled to hide.

Well, something of the sort occurred at the Coldplay concert at Gillette Stadium Wednesday night and “awkward” doesn’t begin to describe the moment.
The internet has identified the man as Andy Byron, the CEO of tech start-up Astronomer, and it has been widely alleged that the woman he’s with is Kristin Cabot, Astronomer’s head of HR. (Their faces seem to match the photos on the company’s “About Us” page .)
Chris Martin, why does Coldplay have a "kiss cam," anyway? I'm not sure I want to know about what happened between two adults outside Boston.
Quick catch-up, just in case: Astronomer CEO Andy Byron and Chief People Officer Kristin Cabot were spotlighted in an embrace, leading Coldplay singer Chris Martin to suggest to the crowd that they were either “having an affair or … just very shy.”
Martin was working the crowd using the “kiss cam” when the camera zoomed in on the couple cuddled up in the stands at the Gillette Stadium on Wednesday night. “Ooh look at these two!” Martin said, as the couple appeared on screen.
