A tech company whose boss was filmed hugging a colleague at a Coldplay concert has said a purported statement from him expressing remorse is fake.

Astronomer CEO Andy Byron—who hid from the jumbotron after he was seen in a close embrace with a woman at a Coldplay concert—has been put on leave at the tech company following the viral video.

Coldplay frontman Chris Martin appeared to have inadvertently exposed an affair between tech CEO Andy Byron and his colleague Kristin Cabot during a recent concert. That led him to be extra careful with who the band showed on the big screen for the rest of the concert.
