Megan Kerrigan Byron Files for Divorce Amid Andy Byron’s Affair Scandal
In a dramatic escalation of the recent controversy surrounding Astronomer CEO Andy Byron, Megan Kerrigan Byron, his wife, has reportedly filed for divorce following the public exposure of his alleged affair with Kristin Cabot, Astronomer’s Chief People Officer. The news was revealed by Nick Sirianni, head coach of the Philadelphia Eagles and a close friend of Megan, who stated that she has not only initiated legal proceedings but also compiled a series of evidence that could have severe repercussions for Andy Byron’s career. The scandal, which first broke during a Coldplay concert on July 16, 2025, at Gillette Stadium in Foxborough, Massachusetts, has sent shockwaves through both the tech industry and the sports world.

The controversy began when Andy Byron and Kristin Cabot were caught on the stadium’s “kiss cam” during Coldplay’s “Music of the Spheres” tour.
