The apparent wife of the tech tycoon exposed for having an “affair” with a co-worker on a jumbotron at a Coldplay concert raked in support online Thursday — with fans cheering her decision to delete her married name from her Facebook page.
As the drama became instant water cooler fodder around the world Thursday, internet sleuths quickly identified Megan Kerrigan Byron as the jilted wife of Astronomer CEO Andy Byron, who was caught cuddling with his head of HR, Kristin Cabot at the show.
Online commenters urged Kerrigan to laugh all the way to the bank.
Here is the latest on the CEO caught cheating on a Coldplay concert jumbotron
“Andy Byron‘s wife has now dropped her married name on Facebook and left comments open on her Facebook!” wrote X user Mrs. SpaceX.
“What a class act! Go Megan. Get that divorce lawyer and get the money.”
“Get that check, girl” another user wrote.
“Hope she takes him for all he’s worth. What a POS,” a third proclaimed.
Kerrigan deleted her Facebook page Thursday but screenshots show she removed her married name — Byron— from it earlier in the day. She also deleted her instagram account.
“Sorry you’re going through this,” another supporter wrote on her Facebook account earlier in the day.
Cabot and her ex-husband, Kenneth Thornby, filed for divorce in 2018 and the split was finalized in 2022, according to Massachusetts court records.
It’s unclear if she has since remarried but the former couple has at least one child, as Thornby was made to pay child support.
Byron and Cabot scrambled to hide their faces when an image of them canoodling appeared on a jumbotron at the Coldplay concert in Gillette Stadium in Foxborough, Massachusetts, on Wednesday night.
“Oh, what?” lead singer Chris Martin can be heard declaring with confusion on stage, according to TikTok footage. “Either they’re having an affair or they’re just very shy.”
