New York-based company Astronomer has hit back to share the truth about a viral statement attributed to its CEO, Andy Byron, after footage from a Coldplay jumbotron appeared to show him with his arms around one of his employees.<\/strong><\/p>\n

A man who has been identified as Byron had been watching Chris Martin with Coldplay at their\u00a0<\/strong>gig<\/a>\u00a0at Gillette Stadium in Foxborough,\u00a0Massachusetts,<\/a>\u00a0on Wednesday (July 16) when he suddenly appeared on a huge screen in the arena.<\/p>\n

In footage that has since gone\u00a0viral<\/a>, Byron appears to have his arms around Kristin Cabot, the Chief People Officer of Astronomer, who is leaning back into Byron and holding his hands.<\/p>\n

“Oh look at these two,” Martin can be heard saying in the\u00a0clip<\/a>. However, when the pair realize they’re on camera, Cabot rushes to cover her face while Byron ducks down out of sight.<\/p>\n

Martin then adds: “Oh, what? Either they’re having an affair or they’re just really shy.”<\/p>\n

In the wake of the viral clip, a statement appeared online which claimed to be written by Byron. The statement refers to a ‘deeply personal mistake playing out on a very public stage’, adding: “I want to sincerely apologize to my wife, my family, and the team at Astronomer. You deserve better from me as a partner, as a father, and as a leader.”<\/p>\n

The statement goes on to request ‘privacy’, before coming to an end with a quote from Coldplay: “Lights will guide you home, and ignite your bones, and I will try to fix you.”<\/p>\n

However, following the release of the apology, Astronomer has\u00a0spoken<\/a>\u00a0to TMZ and said it is ‘not a real statement’.<\/p>\n

One user on\u00a0Twitter<\/a>\u00a0drew attention to questionable aspects of the statement as they wrote: “The ‘statement from Astronomer CEO Andy Byron’ that’s going around originated with a 50-follower account called ‘Peter Enis’. As in ‘P. Enis’.”<\/p>\n

The statement attributed to Byron emerged on X (X\/@petereniscbs)<\/cite><\/div>\n

A community note was also added to the original ‘statement’, which read: “Peter Enis does not exist at CBS News. Until earlier today, this account was listed as a parody. This changed deliberately to mislead.\u201d<\/p>\n

Realizing the jig was up, ‘Peter Enis’ later shared an update in which they admitted they’d been ‘caught’.<\/p>\n

According to<\/a>\u00a0the Financial Express, the X account attributed to Enis posted: “Thank you to all who made today so funny. I\u2019m glad you all enjoyed the Fix You lyric at the end. I debated on that one.. Best, P.Enis.\u201d<\/p>\n

At the time of writing (July 18), the account belonging to Peter Enis has been suspended. Byron has not issued a statement on the viral video.<\/p>\n
