As the pair rushed to hide their faces from the gigantic screen in the sky, Martin said, “Either they
affair or they are very shy”.

Quickly jumping on the joke wagon, X user Saiam Hasan said, “This is why I love Coldplay… Concert ke beech mein bhi four singles release kar diye”. The reference, of course, was to two couples possibly going their separate ways.

Another X user @HANKonX quipped about the couple caught on a giant screen, “The face you make when 20,000 people witness your HR violation in 4K. Live by the policy, die by the Jumbotron"

As the many jokes were shared online and the clip quickly became office and drawing room conversation, the internet world was seemingly on fire.

The craziest thing is about the Astronomer CEO cheating scandal is it was the HR lady. The person who would warn you against fraternizing with coworkers.” The incident also sent people sharing a scene from the American comedy show “The Office” where CEO Michael Scott is seen being romantically involved with the company’s HR representative Holly Flax.
