According to employment lawyers, the Coldplay kiss cam moment that unintentionally revealed a possible cheating scandal between a married tech firm CEO and his head of human resources might be the start of the couple’s professional demise as well as that of their business.
During Coldplay’s performance at Gillette Stadium near Boston on Wednesday night, Astronomer CEO Andy Byron and his HR chief Kristin Cabot were singled out in front of 55,000 people during a segment where lead singer Chris Martin would make up songs to sing with the selected targets.
The nasty controversy, which is only made worse by the fact that Cabot is the head of HR, the division that normally manages and supervises personal connections in the workplace, has not been discussed by either the married Byron or the divorced Cabot.
