During a Coldplay show in Boston on July 16, a man and a woman went very, very, very viral for their alarmed reactions<\/a> to being shown on the jumbotron during a segment of the concert, whereby the band highlights cute couples and happy-looking people in the crowd.<\/p>\n

The man was hugging the woman from behind in a sweet embrace; however, when the cameras cut to them, a look of apparent fear crossed their faces, and they couldn\u2019t separate fast enough. If you\u2019ve not seen the clip<\/a>, the man ducked to the ground while the woman abruptly turned her back and covered her face, leaving everyone, including frontman Chris Martin<\/a>, in complete confusion.<\/p>\n

As you\u2019d expect, the reactions sparked speculation that the pair seriously did not want to be seen together \u2014 and even Chris couldn\u2019t help but comment on the strangeness of it all, announcing to the crowd in the moment<\/a>: \u201cOh, what? Either they\u2019re having an affair or they\u2019re just very shy.\u201d<\/p>\n

It\u2019s fair to say the video literally took over the internet<\/a> last week, and the duo were soon identified as Andy Byron and Kristin Cabot, the CEO and chief people officer of a big tech company called Astronomer. To make matters messier, it was reported that Andy is married with two children.<\/p>\n

As for Kristin, she apparently finalized her divorce in 2022<\/a>.<\/p>\n

For context, the whole filming the audience thing happens on every stop of Coldplay\u2019s tour. And so, when the band returned to the stage in Wisconsin on Saturday, Chris made sure to give concertgoers a very clear heads-up before the cameras turned to them.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe\u2019d like to say hello to some of you in the crowd. How we\u2019re gonna do that is we\u2019re gonna use our cameras and put some of you on the big screen,\u201d Chris can be heard saying in a fan-recorded clip<\/a> from the band\u2019s recent tour stop.<\/p>\n

Notably, both Chris and the crowd let out some knowing laughter, and he concluded by saying: \u201cSo please, if you haven\u2019t done your makeup, do your makeup now.\u201d<\/p>\n

As it stands, Chris has not explicitly addressed the viral moment, which, if you\u2019ve not been keeping up, has taken a pretty serious turn with the news that Andy Byron has left his position as Astronomer\u2019s CEO<\/a>. In a statement put out on Saturday, the tech firm said: \u201cAstronomer is committed to the values and culture that have guided us since our founding. Our leaders are expected to set the standard in both conduct and accountability, and recently, that standard was not met.\u201d<\/p>\n
