After a video of Astronomer CEO Andy Byron and HR head Kristin Cabot canoodling at a Coldplay concert went viral on social media, former CEO Ry Walker weighed in on the controversial chief’s character.
When asked by an X user to describe Byron in a few words, Walker, now CEO of Tembo, described him as “professional.”
“[I] answered a couple questions today privately, [but] figure I should post it here as well since I can’t respond to everyone individually,” Walker said in the post. “I’ve found Andy to be professional, [but] I’ve only ever been on a call with him once.”

The apparent affair was uncovered after the couple were spotted nestling into each other on the concert’s “Kiss Cam.”

“Oh, look at these two,” Martin told the crowd. “All right, c’mon, you’re Ok. Oh, what? Either they’re having an affair or they’re just very shy.”
The Astronomer board launched a formal investigation.
