Astronomer CEO Andy Byron's wife Megan Kerrigan has dropped her surname from Facebook account after her husband's 'affair' with the company's HR head Kristin Cabot was revealed in front of the world as they were caught intimate on the kiss cam at Coldplay concert in Boston, Massachusetts, media reports said.
According to a report by Page Six, Megan has deleted her Facebook account.
The account had contained Megan's family photos featuring her husband Andy.
Andy and Kristin, who are accused of having a secret affair, were spotted holding each other close as they listened to the British rock band.
As the scene was captured on the kiss cam, Andy and Kristin looked uncomfortable and they soon drifted away to hide their faces.
Coldplay lead singer Chris Martin reacted to the moment saying, "Oh look at these two... either they are having an affair or they're very shy."
The video went viral on social media.
