Andy Byron resigned from his job as CEO of Astronomer Inc., according to a statement posted on LinkedIn by the company Saturday.

Kristin Cabot, Astronomer's HR chief, faces backlash after a viral kiss cam video and contradicted her public claims of ethical leadership. Critics are calling for her resignation.

Astronomer CEO Andy Byron has resigned following an investigation into his relationship with a human resource officer after Coldplay frontman Chris Martin accidentally hard-launched their purported affair at a concert.

The employer of a CEO reportedly seen in a viral "kiss cam" moment at a recent Coldplay concert says it is launching an investigation into the incident. Astronomer, a New York City-based data company, said in a statement Friday that a "formal investigation" has been launched by its board of directors.

A Coldplay concert in Boston sparked a controversy. Astronomer's CEO Andy Byron and HR head Kristin Cabot were seen in a video. Their interaction raised eyebrows. Another employee, Alyssa Stoddard, was also present.

The chief executive caught in a suspected affair at a Coldplay concert has been suspended, and it has emerged that the colleague he was cuddling was married to the boss of a multimillion-pound rum empire.

Lead singer Chris Martin then joked that they were either “having an affair or are just very shy”. The man has been identified as Astronomer CEO Andy Byron and the woman as his company's Chief People Officer Kristin Cabot. Dubliner Andy Byron never imagined he would get caught up in this scandal, which has rocked the online world.
