In the now-famous clip, Cabot and Byron were seen enjoying the concert before attempting to duck and hide when the camera zoomed in on them. Coldplay's frontman, Chris Martin, humorously remarked, "Either they're having an affair, or they're just very shy," as the audience reacted to the situation. The resulting buzz on social media turned the incident into a meme, with many users making light of the pair’s discomfort.

Following the weekend events, Astronomer initiated an investigation and announced Byron would be placed on leave. The day after, the company confirmed his resignation, and Pete DeJoy, co-founder and chief product officer, stepped in as interim CEO. DeJoy addressed the unusual spotlight the company has found itself in, acknowledging the rapid surge in attention and reiterating their commitment to progress despite the challenges at hand.
