The Coldplay kiss cam moment that accidentally uncovered a potential cheating scandal between a married tech firm CEO and his head of human resources could be the beginning of a professional downfall for the canoodling duo — and their company, employment lawyers suggested.
On Wednesday evening, Astronomer CEO Andy Byron and his human resources chief, Kristin Cabot, were singled out in a crowd of 55,000 during Coldplay’s concert at Gillette Stadium near Boston during a segment in which lead singer Chris Martin would create impromptu ditties to sing with the chosen targets.
Neither the married Byron nor the divorced Cabot has spoken out about the sordid scandal — which is only complicated by her standing as the head of HR, the department that would typically handle and oversee romantic relationships in the workplace.“It’s horrible because she is the head of HR! She’s involved in an extramarital affair with the CEO. Basically, how much worse of an HR faux pas could you commit?” employment lawyer William Cafaro, co-counsel at Big Apple-based Buzin Law, told The Post Thursday night.
“The only way it could be worse is if the head of HR was having an affair with someone who worked for her. That’s the only permutation I could think of that could be worse — but this is pretty high up there.”
