 "Astronomer CEO Andy Byron's wife Megan Kerrigan could get half of his wealth if their divorce happens post the viral Coldplay moment, from $20 million to $70 million")
Astronomer CEO Andy Byron grabbed eyeballs since the Coldplay debacle as he was caught in Kiss Cam having a private moment on Wednesday (16 July) with the company’s chief human resources officer, Kristin Cabot, in Boston.
This incident took the social media by storm and soon after that Andy Byron’s wife Megan Kerrigan Byron, who is a well-known teacher, dropped “Byron” from her surname on various online profiles and deleted her Facebook page as per Page Six.
According to a report by New York Post, the wife and her kids could get half of his wealth if their divorce happens, anywhere from $20 million to $70 million. The relationship is definitely strained but no confirmation about the couple’s future has been made yet.
Their lawyer Nancy Chemtob was quoted saying in a statement- “It’s obviously a long-term relationship. I think the worst thing in this case is the embarrassment factor for the kids.”
“The problem here is that now, the kids are embarrassed, the families are embarrassed, and there’s going to be a lot of expenses with regard to therapy for the children, getting separate homes, things like that.”
“Andy Byron‘s wife has now dropped her married name on Facebook and left comments open on her Facebook! What a class act! Go Megan. Get that divorce lawyer and get the money," wrote the user called Mrs SpaceX on X.
During the concert, Coldplay’s lead singer joked about the moment and said, “Oh look at these two… either they’re having an affair or they’re very shy."
After the incident, Andy apologized in a viral statement to his wife, family, and colleagues, which read, “You deserve better from me as a partner, as a father, and as a leader.”
A former colleague of Byron shared that incident has garnered angry reactions from ex-employees. The text groups and chains of former employees are like… everybody’s laughing their ass off and enjoying the hell out of what happened and him getting exposed,” he told The New York Post.
