A HR CHIEF caught in the arms of her married boss at a Coldplay gig boasted she “wins the trust of CEOs” on her LinkedIn.

Kristin Cabot, Chief People Officer at Astronomer, was left red-faced as she flashed up on a big screen in front of thousands while the tech firm’s CEO cuddled her.

Married Andy Byron dived to hide behind a barrier, while Cabot covered her face with her hands and turned her back to the crowd.

The pair were watching Coldplay perform in Boston, Massachusetts, on Wednesday night when frontman Chris Martin panned his ‘kiss cam’ onto them.

Yellow singer Martin exclaimed: “Oh look at these two.”

But, realising their grinning faces were being cast on a giant screen in front of thousands at Gillette Stadium, they both swiftly unlocked arms and shielded their faces.

As a chorus of laughter echoed around the jam-packed stadium, Martin said: “Oh what… either they’re having an affair or they’re very shy.”

Cabot was recruited as software development firm Astronomer’s Chief People Officer just nine months ago in November.

On her LinkedIn, she boasts: “I lead by example and win trust with employees of all levels, from CEOs to managers to assistants.”

Cabot – who has the second surname Thornby in brackets on her page – adds: “I’m a passionate people leader known for building award-winning cultures from the ground up for fast-growing startups and multi-national corporations.”

When Calbot was appointed in November, Byron released a gushing comment praising her “exceptional leadership and deep expertise in talent management”.

He added: “She is a proven leader at multiple growth-stage companies and her passion for fostering diverse, collaborative workplaces makes her a perfect fit for Astronomer.”

Calbot realised a similarly enthusiastic comment, saying she was “energised in my conversations with Andy and the Astronomer leadership team about the opportunities that exist here”.

Her statement added: “I prefer to think of my role as people strategy versus traditional human resources, as the real magic happens when you align the people strategy with the business strategy.”

According to Byron’s LinkedIn, he has been CEO of Astronomer – understood to be worth more than £1 billion – since July 2023.

The cringeworthy footage has gone viral on social media – having been shared thousands of times on X and TikTok.

Hundreds have accused Byron of cheating on his wife, and have shared support for her.

One social media user commented: “Sorry for the wife but glad they’re being exposed and embarrassed.”

Another wrote: “How utterly sad.”

A third said: “They are both incredibly stupid, sorry. Why would you go to a concert of all places if you are having an affair.”

Byron and Cabot do not appear to have addressed the affair accusations yet.

The Sun has approached Astronomer for comment.
