The internet has ID’d the third woman caught on jumbotron next to cheating couple at Coldplay concert, and everyone is saying the same thing about her
A seemingly innocent concert moment has set the internet ablaze with speculation about Astronomer executives Andy Byron and Kristin Cabot. The CEO and Chief People Officer were caught in an intimate embrace on the Jumbotron during Coldplay’s Boston show, triggering widespread rumors of a workplace romance.
The viral clip shows Byron wrapping his arms around Cabot during “Jumbotron Song,” with both quickly hiding their faces when they realized they were on screen. Coldplay frontman Chris Martin amplified the moment, joking: “Either they’re having an affair or they’re just really shy.”
Attention soon shifted to a third figure in the frame – Alyssa Stoddard, Astronomer’s recently promoted Senior Director of People. Observers noted her telling reaction, suggesting she might have prior knowledge about her superiors’ relationship status.
Social media detectives quickly connected dots, noting Stoddard’s January 2025 hiring and recent promotion under Cabot’s leadership. Comments ranged from calling her “the feminist friend pushing for it” to speculating about potential connections to Byron’s spouse.
The timing of Stoddard’s career advancement added fuel to the fire, with one commenter noting: “She’s the recent hire who just got a promotion.” Others focused on her apparent awareness during the Jumbotron moment.
More dramatic theories emerged, including one suggesting Stoddard might be close friends with Byron’s wife. As the speculation grows, the viral clip continues generating heated online discussion about workplace relationships and corporate dynamics.
While the nature of Byron and Cabot’s relationship remains unconfirmed, the incident serves as a cautionary tale about public displays of affection in the digital age. The Astronomer executives have yet to publicly address the growing speculation surrounding their viral moment.
