KENNEBUNK, MAINE: Disgraced tech executive Andy Byron has been spotted rekindling his marriage with wife Megan Kerrigan, months after his public downfall in the Coldplay kiss cam scandal.

The former Astronomer CEO, who resigned following the viral moment with his then chief people officer Kristin Cabot, was seen strolling with his wife in Maine while both sported their wedding bands.

Exclusive photos published by the Daily Mail showed the couple leaving a lavish Kennebunk mansion, where Megan has reportedly been staying since the scandal broke before enjoying a romantic sunset picnic at a local beach.

Other snaps captured the pair dressed casually in sweats and athleisure wear while walking through the upscale neighborhood.



 

Andy Byron and wife Megan spotted together after Coldplay scandal

The sighting comes more than two months after Byron, 51, and Cabot, 52, were thrust into the spotlight when the Gillette Stadium jumbotron panned to them during Coldplay’s Music of the Spheres World Tour on July 16.

The pair, caught in an intimate embrace, awkwardly ducked to avoid the cameras as the moment quickly went viral. Coldplay frontman Chris Martin added to the embarrassment, joking from the stage: “Either they’re having an affair or they’re just very shy.”

The clip triggered a wave of social media frenzy, sparking memes and heated online debates.

Kristin Cabot resigns, files for divorce as Andy Byron steps down

The incident prompted Astronomer to launch an internal investigation, and both Byron and Cabot were placed on leave. Byron resigned the following day, while Cabot stepped down less than a week later.

On August 13, Cabot filed for divorce from her husband Andrew Cabot, citing irreconcilable differences.

Meanwhile, no divorce paperwork has been filed by Byron and Megan in Massachusetts, according to court records. Megan, 50, removed her husband’s last name from her social media pages after the scandal, reverting to her maiden name, Kerrigan.

Before deactivating her account, Megan quietly dropped “Byron” from her surname on Facebook, a move that didn’t go unnoticed.

Megan Kerrigan retreated to their Maine mansion during scandal

Following the viral fallout, Megan reportedly left the couple’s multi-million-dollar home in Northborough, Massachusetts, for a $2.4 million mansion in Kennebunk, Maine.

The sprawling four-bedroom, 4,169-square-foot property has served as her retreat in the aftermath of her husband’s public humiliation.

Despite the scandal, Megan was recently seen by Byron’s side again, both wearing their wedding rings — suggesting the couple may be working on their marriage privately.
