Did Megan Kerrigan Announce Her Divorce from Andy Byron After Coldplay Kiss Cam Scandal?

A viral Facebook account claiming to be Megan Kerrigan - wife of Astronomer CEO Andy Byron - has sparked widespread speculation after posting about a "decision to divorce" her husband following the now-infamous Coldplay concert kiss cam video. However, the Facebook page is fake, and many users are being misled.

The page, under the name Megan Kerrigan Byron, posted a long message alleging infidelity by Byron and announcing plans to file for divorce and seek alimony. "I've made the difficult decision to move forward with a divorce... for my peace, healing, and future," the post read, sparking a wave of public sympathy.

But is it really her?

Despite the emotional tone and convincing content, it has been confirmed that the page is not Megan's actual Facebook account. In reality, Megan reportedly removed "Byron" from her name on Facebook shortly after the concert footage went viral. She later deleted her account entirely, along with her Instagram.

An X (formerly Twitter) user wrote,"Andy Byron's wife has now dropped her married name on Facebook... What a class act! Go Megan. Get that divorce lawyer and get the money."

The Coldplay Controversy

The drama began when a video from a Coldplay concert in Boston surfaced showing Astronomer CEO Andy Byron appearing to kiss Kristin Cabot, the company's HR head. The clip quickly went viral, causing a PR crisis for the company.

Byron has since been placed on leave, Astronomer confirmed on Friday via X.

Who Is Megan Kerrigan?

Megan is a respected educator based in Massachusetts. She serves as the Associate Director of the Lower School and Admissions for the Hope Graham Program at the Bancroft School in Worcester. Known for her dedication to inclusive education, the 50-year-old had maintained a private online presence until this controversy erupted.

No Official Statement Yet

So far, none of the individuals involved - Andy Byron, Kristin Cabot, or Megan Kerrigan - have made any public statements. However, the incident has fueled online discussion and media coverage, largely based on speculation and impersonation.

The emotional Facebook post claiming Megan Kerrigan is divorcing Astronomer CEO Andy Byron is not authentic. The real Megan has removed her social media presence, and the company has placed Byron on leave amid the scandal.
