Coldplay scandal: Andy Byron's wife Megan retreats to USD 2.4 million mansion amid marital crisis

Megan Byron, wife of former Astronomer CEO Andy Byron, is reportedly laying low at the couple’s USD 2.4 million Maine mansion following her husband's viral kiss cam scandal at a Coldplay concert in Boston — where he was caught getting a little too cozy with his HR executive, Kristin Cabot.

According to a New York Post report, Megan, 50, has retreated to the luxurious 4,169-square-foot property — 106 miles from the couple’s primary home in Northborough, Massachusetts — for emotional support and crisis talks about the future of their marriage.

Family members, including her older sister Maura, have been seen visiting the estate over the weekend, the report stated.

A local reportedly said that the whole town has seen the video, but “the family doesn’t want to talk about it.”

A school administrator at Bancroft School, Megan has since removed her husband’s name from her social media and reverted to her maiden name, Kerrigan. Gone too are the once-cheerful family photos of her, Andy, and their two sons — including shots from a family hike and a graduation celebration.

As for Andy and Kristin? Neither has been seen publicly since the Coldplay concert incident. Both were placed on leave from Astronomer before Andy’s official resignation.

The company issued a statement on LinkedIn and Twitter, stating: “Our leaders are expected to set the standard in both conduct and accountability, and recently, that standard was not met. Andy Byron has tendered his resignation, and the Board of Directors has accepted.”

Astronomer co-founder Pete DeJoy has taken over as interim CEO as the company starts its search for a new chief executive.
