Andy Byron, former CEO of tech firm Astronomer and the subject of a viral Coldplay “kiss cam” moment earlier this year, has sold his New York residence for US$5.8 million.
A deed recorded on Nov. 18 by the city’s Department of Finance shows the Tribeca property was never publicly listed for sale. Records also indicate Byron remains married to his wife, Megan, with the couple’s current address registered in Massachusetts, according to Crain’s New York Business.
The condominium, purchased by the couple in 2022 for US$5.4 million, includes four bedrooms, three and a half bathrooms, an open kitchen, and a wine refrigerator, The New York Post reported.
Byron, 51, and Astronomer’s former HR director Kristin Cabot, 53, drew widespread attention in July when they were filmed embracing on a Coldplay “kiss cam.” The video quickly went viral, prompting Byron to resign from Astronomer, followed shortly by Cabot’s departure.
After the scandal, Megan, 50—described by the Daily Mail as “America’s most forgiving wife”—reverted to her maiden name, Kerrigan, on social media and moved out of the couple’s home in Northborough, Massachusetts.
In late September, Byron and Megan were seen together for the first time in months during relaxed outings near their coastal retreat in Maine, both still wearing wedding bands. A source close to Cabot told People that no affair took place, adding that the only “inappropriate” act was the hug captured at the concert.
A separate source close to Cabot told The New York Times that Byron had been separated from his wife and living apart at the time of the incident. The source also said Cabot and her husband, Andrew Cabot, 61, had been separated for several weeks before the concert. She later filed for divorce on Aug. 13 in Portsmouth, New Hampshire; both parties requested that the records remain sealed.
