A New York City-based astrology expert on TikTok has figured out the sun sign of Astronomer Inc.’s scandalous CEO, Andy Byron, after he was recently caught cheating at a Coldplay concert. In a recent video with 29,000 views, Amira (@bankofamira) questioned whether astrology can explain a man’s infidelity.
“I need to know what sign is dumb enough to bring their side piece to a sold-out Coldplay concert,” Amira told her more than 80,000 followers. “That man is either a fire sign or an earth sign.”
#ColdplayGate
Coldplay concerts are typically known for their immersive atmosphere and once-in-a-lifetime, effervescent quality. But at a recent Gillette Stadium performance in Foxborough, Massachusetts last Wednesday, the band accidentally unveiled one of the year’s biggest cheating scandals.
Byron and Astronomer Inc.’s Chief People Officer Kristin Cabot were spotted holding each other in a romantic embrace.
Chris Martin, Coldplay’s lead singer, immediately caught onto the couple’s energy when the camera panned to them. “Oh look at these two,” he said in circulating videos of the incident. Byron and Cabot tried to duck away from the jumbotron, but it was too late. Martin added, “Either they’re having an affair or they’re just very shy.”
TikTok sleuths quickly identified the two prominent figures. Byron, who is married with two kids, has since removed his public-facing social media profiles. Despite speculation that Cabot is divorced, she also appears to currently be married. Her husband, Andrew Cabot, is the CEO of Privateer Rum, a family-owned craft distilling company.
Byron’s wife, Meg Kerrigan, removed her last name from her Facebook profile on July 17. Previously, she had deactivated her account due to the intense outreach after the scandal. On July 18, she commented on the situation in a now deleted post: “The betrayal wasn’t just personal, it was public. The whispers, the DMs, the posts, the pity… it all felt like too much. I needed silence. I needed space. I needed to breathe.”
She has since deleted a majority of her social media posts, leaving one where she simply states, “I will be fine.”
Former Astronomer CEO Ry Walker publicly commented on the scandal on X: “For those asking—I’m no longer involved in @astronomerio—yes I was co-founder and early CEO—not on the team or board since 2022, and have no information on ColdplayGate.”
From Professional To Romantic
Cabot has had a working relationship with the CEO since her first day at Astronomer. It’s unclear how long the affair has lasted, but past LinkedIn posts showcase a mutual yet professional admiration between the two.
In a press release from November 2024, Cabot said she was “energized in [her] conversations with [Byron] and the Astronomer leadership team about the opportunities that exist.” Astronomer has since deleted posts relating to Cabot.
Is Byron An Earth Or Fire Sign?
Amira guessed Byron would either be a fire sign or an earth sign based on how he was caught.
“Air signs aren’t the ones to get caught cheating… [and] a male water sign is too calculated,” she said.
While many speculated that Cabot and Byron have Leo placements in their astrological charts, there isn’t any publicly available information to confirm this. However, several commenters claimed Byron is an earth sign based on his September birthday.
Wikipedia lists him as having a Sept. 14 birthday, right in the heart of Virgo season.
One commenter said, “I did some research and he’s a Virgo.”
Others agreed, saying, “He’s a Virgo… He was born in September and has to be with the south node in Virgo.”
Why Are Virgo Men Toxic?
In the dating world, Virgo men do have a reputation for being a little toxic. Though of course astrology is rooted in broad generalizations. A simple query into ChatGPT reveals an elaborate breakdown about these stereotypes: Virgos are perfectionists, emotionally walled off, struggle with control issues.
Virgos are mutable signs, too, the chameleons of the Zodiac.
Amira said that earth signs “never think it’ll happen” to them when it comes to adultery.
“He’s so under the radar in his head,” she adds.
Cabot is apparently also a Virgo, according to TikTok sleuths, though BroBible cannot independently verify this.
@bankofamira honestly so embarrassing to get caught cheating and at a concert 😂 #astrology #coldplay
In that regard, Amira’s assumption was correct, as Virgo is an earth sign.
